squeaking

Where? Lubing an existing turbo is cheaper and better for the planet than buying a new one.

I'm trying to eek out the last miles on a tyre on the turbo at the moment. The tread has broken away from the sidewall and it's now a fine line between getting the most mileage out of it and it exploding the tube within...

It’s a seven year old Cycleops Fluid. The thing is rooted (as you lot say).

I want a smart trainer anyway so I can use erg mode in some circumstances.

Both my turbos are older. You don't need to pretend it's squeaking to justify a smart trainer #buyer ;)

I was thinking about one myself for the smaller footprint but then with no back wheel I'd lose my Powertap and then what? Rely on the trainer's power output? No no no..
