so you don't think the bent find would hurt performance at all???

 

^^nope, and I would guarantee that there are a lot of guy's running worse bent fins with no performance decrease out there

 

I can personally attest to that. We had a 35r that something went through the wheel, shredded it, and the car still ran great. We only noticed it when we pulled the turbo off to send it in for an HTA conversion. If you really want to fix it, you can also take advantage of the CHRA exchange program, no need to pay $1k for a new CHRA.

I know someone that had something fall down the intake pipe and bend all the fins to the point it wouldnt even build boost. Straightened all the fins out as good as possible and went and put down 600whp.

 

Yeah, that seems kinda risky though. IMO. But hell if it worked for him then its all good

 

thanks for the link I'll look into that on monday. but if it's gonna be real expensive then I'll probably just leave the turbine alone.

 

thats nothing! check out mine.... lol

 

dude

run the **** out of that thing. You might lost 50rpm of spool.

 

jc evo,

that looks pretty bad man lol.. have ya repaired it??? did it even spool with that much damage???

 

That's about how ours looked, like I said we never even knew it until we pulled it off for unrelated reasons.

 

hell, I might call a few people just to see what they say. but I'm now leaning towards just putting the new hotside on and seeing what kinda power I can make

 

yeh it ran, kinda. lol

 

its fine.. trust

 

Its so smal it bearly noticable, I dont see why it would affect anything really.

 

What are you all talking about this turbo is perfectly fine. THIS is the same turbo that was on BADBISH's 9.0 pass J/K
