to buy or not to buy?
I'm looking at a couple turbos for sale right now. The one that seems like a pretty good deal looks like it may have a bad casting on the hot side. What do you guys think? Price is about $500 for a Garrett T4 A/r .6



LMK what you think.. Thanks.

sure, you can get a different housing for cheap. Get one with a v-band if you do get a new housing.
