that's nice, sure we have to be sure the turbo is fine when he's already used and ask about if it's the 64 or 84 mm surge port, 18 psi or 25 wastegate and if it's port.

for my use, the 84mm, 18 psi and porting seem to be perfect for me.

I am thinking about testing the White on my car.

Its the Evo version of the 68HTA like we use in the Little Auto (DSM) and is available for the Sube guys (same wheel as the DSM). In that vein it was worth around 6mph on the little auto which is a ton. We made 408whp at 25psi through an auto (2.3 car) which Kevin informs me suffers from around 12% additional loss because of the converter and planetary drag over a manual.

That maths to 457whp as a manual. An Evo9 needs around 10psi more boost and some crazy Aaron tricks to make that power. An Evo3 needs a 41psi spike to make that happen, keeping it DSM to DSM.

Personally i would never by a used turbo because you dont know how it was ran BUT what you could do is buy one used then send it to fp off top and have them fully inspect and rebuilt it and just pay the rebuild fee that way you know its good. nothing work then to buy one with shaftplay or damaged bearings again you never truely know the condition unless you know the guy. Yea deals are all around when you get 1500 come holla at me I can find one i find them all the time trust when i say this I have only paid retail on one part on my build and that was the custom AMS headgasket and oil line boss

Used turbos arent bad just because they are used. Its pretty easy to check thrust on the bearings but you obviously have to be there to see it.
