but I wouldn't do any long trips. You could also help the exhaust breathe better by leaving the wastegate actuator arm loose. Also, you can try to loosen the seized turbo by using a T-handle with socket (I forget which size, maybe 3/8?) to turn the compressor wheel. The threads are reversed so turn it counterclockwise. If it breaks free change your oil immediately (synthetic) and look for another (used?) turbo.
