Soo i bought a used pt88 from this guy and he claimed "refreshed seals and perfect working condition" I have quoted his exact para graph down below and have provided a link and pictures for verification. I wanted to polish the compressor housing because the older pt88 compressor housings are straight UGLY. Upon pulling the cover off i noticed markings in the compressor wheel and corresponding ones in the housing as if the turbo had sucked something in. Soo this made me suspicious, as well as the fact some shrapnel and oil had been leaking out of the exhaust port. Naturally i pulled the exhaust housing for good measure and what did i find? More shrapnel from a greneded engine undoubtedly and BENT turbine fins. I have all the pictues posted down below for veification. I am not new to the turbo scene, i have built many boosted imports (dare i say that outloud) and this is no different. I have my engine bay mocked up for this turbo and i dont want to return it, this is the one and only turbo i wanted. All i would like is for ujslost to respond cordially and take action on this issue. I would at the minimal like to get a new or used but PERFECT condition turbine wheel and just get my compressor wheel reballanced and cleaned up of the knicks. OR have him pay what it costs to get this done and this deal done right as i had originally intended on. I have messaged him, and i also am next filing a dispute via paypal. I hope he can shed some light on this and make it right. thanks
