SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD
Ok so I've decided to sell this. Need funds for other things.
I have one Evo X turbo. Appears to be in excellent condition. The seller claimed it had under 8000 miles on it. I brought it in from the states.
I previously said it has no shaft play. I still believe that to be the case, but I'm not a turbo expert. After watching a number of youtube videos I've seen how they suggest a turbo is inspected. This one has zero back and forth movement. If you try quite hard to move the compressor turbine side to side there is a very small amount of movement. If you press perpendicular against the compressor turbine shaft toward the inlet hard with your finger you can reduce the clearance between the turbine blade and the housing, but it doesn't touch. It will still spin when you do this. I can't make the exhaust turbine move at all. Just wanted to be very clear and open about it. As I said, i don't think this constitutes shaft play, but I'm no expert on turbos. It appears to be in excellent condition. Compared to some of the videos on youtube its almost brand new!
Turbos are cheap in the states, but shipping them here is not :S
EDIT - Need this thing gone! I'm losing money now as I had to pay to have the stupid bolt removed as I couldn't in good conscience sell it to someone like that. $500 pick up price.
Comes with wastegate actuator and inlet elbow (not shown).
