Cleanest s4 Turbo I have seen in a long time...Rebuild/upgraded turbos that clean are usually around 500.00.

Again great score

Congrats.

Now port the wasegate to save yourself from pulling it out again.

Also.
I don't know of this will be a problem or not.
When my turbo rebuilder did mine he had to destroy the internal oil restrictor to doa thorough cleaning. This will make your turbo smoke like a ****. You will need to put an inline restrictor on the feed line to help bring it back down to normal psi levels for a turbo.

Well, first off... hater alert was uncalled for because I just asked a question. I didn't say it was stolen... I ASKED if it was stolen. Second of all, yes, if it was stolen I would have a problem with that. There is a local shop in town that is constantly being broken into... and they'll be lucky to provide great services to our car communities if it keeps happening. So, yea... that's a problem people.

I'm glad you found a cheap turbo. And since it's not stolen, good find.
