Default Real GT25R??? How to tell?

Hi guys, I need some help.

I came across a guy on another forum selling a brand new GT25R. He says he bought it off ebay. It is from a store called JNE Power, but in all their pictures it says Exotic Speed Racing INC. I have heard the horror stories related to the XS power stuff, and the SSautocrap stuff, but heard nothing about these guys.
Now both the seller, and the ebay store claim that the turbo uses actual garrett internals. He says he took it apart and everything looked quality. However my concern is that the housing is completly blank. Why would it be changed?
So what do you guys think? Is this the real deal, or is this some shitty knock off?
Thanks.
