if it spins freely and has minimal shaft play it's good in my book 8)

But, when you use it you will really know if it's good or not.

I would say so, it's a nice small turbo. It should serve you well

i love junkyards. I always get there with empty pockets, and i leave with them full. The dudes at the front counter don't even speak english, so they say nothing to me. I just give them my clint eastwood stare as i walk out..... Make my day.

It's a good turbo but you will get sick of it soon. The powerband is a bit too smooth for me. I like a swift kick in the ass when boost hits. :P
