AHh, more shens. I get to swap in a better getrag and hope it was not abused, or ran with no fluids like mine did. No one repairs the buggers, and the few who do, charge arms and legs, plus left nuts, right eye, and a butt cheek. Parts hard to get, expensive, and need special tools to remove. I may have to load up on a few getrags and not put one in my 242.

Got my 50 trim turbo from an ebay buy. Used China T3/T4 54 trim. Actually decent quality, but the interesting parts is the compressor wheel looks a lot like a real Garrett wheel except it looks and feels heavier. You have to see them side by side to tell the difference. I have not decided how I will handle this turbo. I have another turbo I can rebuild as well.
