Will this affect much?

Re:Will this affect much?
That turbo will probably not last long as it's clearly out of balance. If you push it to the limits of it's rev range it will definitely not last long.
I got a T3 "40 trim" from an 87 Saab 900 with .48 exhaust housing at the junkyard for $50. Minimal shaft play, both wheels intact and I got the boost control solenoid with it.

ouch.. Yes it will affect performance, and the longevity of the turbo, its pretty much junk unless you can get a new compressor wheel and balance it for cheap? try to get a smoking deal on it if possible. I mean you could just slap it on there, but how long it would last is very questionable.
Good luck,

Considering I got sold 4 bad 14B's in the span of 3 months, I'd call that turbo scrap just about! A rebuild is one thing, needing to replace internals (unless you get a smoking deal on them of have spares laying sround) on a fairly common turbo like this.... just doesnt make financial sense.
For the same or less money you can ALWAYS (trust me it took a couple times) you can find a turbo in good working order.
