need help, ebay turbo intake broke

Hey guys I bought a ebay turbo intake, the ones that have the turbo fan on the intake and spins when you give it gas. Recently I noticed it is making weird noises, I checked for shaft play but there isn't any. Is it ok to drive? I don't want the turbo fan blades to break and get sucked into the engine.



Thanks

In before flaming begins -

Please remove that and reinstall your oem intake untill you buy a decent replacement, if any of that gets sucked in, it will destroy your engine

Damn it works great though. I can really feel the increase in power especially at the lower rpms. One more thing, I've never been able to get the blow off valve to work on that kit, do you guys think its because the blades are bad??? I've wired the bov every other way now

Just get a JWT pop charger, HKS, injen, fujita, or any other known brand. Don't go with this fan crap, it's not going to aid to any benefit at all. It's all in your head. You want real power from the VQ? Build the motor, swap the motor, or go forced induction.
