Will driving with a blown turbo damage the car?

Yes you can damage the car by driving with a blown turbo. The most damage would be done to the engine because at high rpms it can begin to scrape metal on metal causing shards of the turbo to enter into the engine. Also if you accelerate at i high rate, it may begin to smoke because of the oil in the turbo. Damage may also be done to the exhaust. Accelerate slowly, check your oil and coolant, and you should be ok. But you're going to want to change that turbo out asap!
