Does this turbo look good?

My little bro wants this auction, he asked me if the turbo looks good. I told him it looks good and he wants second opinion

looks good to me... id ask for pictures of the turbine side though. The only way to know for sure is to run it. My turbos bearings are just about perfect but she burns oil like nobodys business...

it's really hard to tell when buying a turbo off ebay since they can be cleaned and can't see shaft play.....you just have to take the word of the seller
