It is currently setup for an external wastegate setup but if you needed it back to internal, you could grind out the welds.
I change my oil religiously, time down always and never boost when cold so it is a safe bet this turbo is in great shape (I can not comment on shaft play because it is still in the car but I’d assume it to be very good based on its performance)
The ONLY reason i am selling is because I am having a moment of weakness and am about to buy a GT2871R.
Turbo is capable of 300 to the wheels with supporting mods.
Get back to me ASAP if interested. I need to know if there is a market for this turbo before I do something foolish
Turbo ready for delivery in 2 weeks (give or take)
