I spoke with scheides on the phone yesterday. I found out that the guy that thesocaldude bought this from never even put it on his car. The turbo is good. It just has more mileage then he told you (he knew how many miles where on it and knew everything that had been done/put into the turbo. I have the emails to prove that. Its a good turbo and it spooled just fine when We had it on the 2g Spiceyorange has.

Ok, im confused. Let me get this straight from this turbo, what actaully is this turbo? Whats the housing? What is the compressor wheels? So now, I'm getting Santa had this turbo. What was your review on it? How did it spool? What was the mods that time when it was on the car? Was it rebuilt by you or a shop? If it was, does it need rebalanced? I just have a blown turbo and need something to get er' moving agian.

The Turbo was on MY car (2G GST). It spooled great (I had it set for 15-18PSI)it had very little shaft play and never had any oil blowby when we sold it. Kevin (Santa) Rebuilt it himself with used parts, it was never balanced, but there wasn't any shaft clearance/rubbing issues.. The car was mostly stock at the time (I don't think I had any engine mods on there at the time), and it ran great with the turbo on there. I just sold it because I got a deal on a 61 and didnt need the turbo anymore. The specs of the Turbo are:
Big 16G exhaust wheel in a mitsu 7cm exhaust housing, with a mitsu center section. a 20g compressor wheel housing and a 20g Comp wheel. As Santa said, there is NO way that turbo has less than 1k on it. When We sold it to Pheng, it had 11-18K on it from my car, not including the miledge on the used parts. It is a great little turbo for sure, and I would not have sold it if I knew if any problems, I don't like getting F'ed over and I wouldn't do it to someone else. Kevin and myself just don't want anyone to get "cheated" Or mislead on here from some dipshit (the kid who bought it from us)who thinks he can make a quick buck by lying to people on this board, and other places.
So don't feel threatened to buy it..I just want you to know what it is!
