Previous owner was a hack mechanic. I wouldn't have wanted to be on the same race track as him with $0.02 mods waiting for a disaster.
I'd be looking at ALL of the mods that this guy did on the truck as you now know the kind of work he does. You had a "near miss" with the turbo but that was just a warning shot over the bow for you. Seriously look at ALL of the mods (suspension, engine, transmission, etc.) for proper installation, proper hardware, etc. The next failure may not treat you so kindly.
