Just wanted some of you fine gents to take a look at my turbo prop and tell me if that looks like what i think it looks like(propeller rub).

Thanks guys.

 

looks like the turbo ingested some foreign debris

 

Doubt that is debris. Definitely looks like propeller rub...Gl...

 

To be fair, its got about 0.3mm of slop, and its got a whopping 93k miles on this turbo, so both debris and prop rub are likely. Any ballparks on a rebuild?

 

Looks like you may have taken in some small particles as the ends of the inner CW blades are marred a tiny bit. Overall it does not look like you have had much contact with the CW hitting the CC. If you did have a lot of contact you would start to see the outer edge fold back or create uneven wear marks on the CW. I have a 9 turbo that has seen excessive slop and wore out the outside of the CW that I may be able to upload as a reference for you later in the morning when home.

 

Much appreciated. Curious about a rebuild ballpark, or some ideas on an aftermarket upgrade that fits like factory, and just replace the whole thing.

 

Send it to FP and get a Red

 

Forgot about this

 

I personally think you got your scarring from whatever your turbo ate and not excessive shaft play, however I'm not a turbo expert.
