Default Blew turbo. Put car back to semi stock. Will I be alright running like this?

My turbo is smoking after re installing. I need to get it rebuild. its saab t3. Anybody in San Diego that does this at a decent price?

I put the stock manifold and down pipe in. I left everything else in. I put a air filter before the intercooler N/A intercooled. Plugged the oilpan drain. I left the Turboedit chip in the ecu with the 450 cc injectors. Will I be fine running like this for a while?

Kidding. I plugged the feed too at the end of the line. I just coiled up and tucked it in by the motor mount.

Any other TurboEdit or Uberdata experts out there? Will I be fine?
