Hesitantly Boosting
Hey guys,
I just got the car back from Meek. Ended up replacing the front turbo with a second hand one because the compressor housing had a chunk out of it and the fins on the compressor wheel were chewed up (lovely). It's running sweet now but it's got me thinking about the rear turbo. I haven't had a chance to look yet but I'm worried that the fins on it could be chewed up too. So I'm thinking of one of two options:
If the fins are chewed, replace the whole turbo. If they aren't chewed out, just to do a rebuild. Rebuild kits seem pretty straight forward, but if I was to replace the turbo, would this be a direct fit replacement? And is it decent?
