Default How do i know if this Precision is BB?

Hey guys,

i'm going to be buying a Precision 6262. the guy claims its a Ball Bearing turbo! how can i check to make sure 100% that it is a BB 6262? he says it doesnt even have 50 miles on it, because he put it on his GSR, and on the Dyno the motor blew up. here are the pics he provided me with.

please any info or help will be greatly appreciated!!

thanks,

its going to have coolant ports on both sides of the center section between the oil feed and the return, ever single picture you posted conviently keeps those ports hidden from view if they are in fact there......

the new CHRA's are not water cooled anymore, you will notice it has fins on the CHRA cause they are now air cooled, oil lubricated......

the shaft feel when you grab the compressor wheel and move it around is different between the 2 types also, the BB is more clunky and solid feeling. It takes one to know one.
