Opinion on this turbo
 

Hey guys!
Self-professed n0Ob here!
I drive a 98 Civic Si (y8), bone stock at the moment, and I'm hoping to turbo it in the next little while.
Anyways, I've been checking out ebay, looking for an affordable T3, and found this one:

Would it be a good deal, or does it seem too beat up?
Are there any specific questions I should be asking the seller?
If you guys think it's a good one, I'll probably "Buy it Now"

Thanks for the input, guys. :)

I run that same turbo on my gsxr 750. Its a .48 hot and .42 cold internal at 7psi. I picked mine up for $25 at local yard and rebuild for 90 bucks. Mine is oil and water cooled.
