It's not marked xs power or vecco or any of that stuff. I did find it on ebay though, and I guess it is pretty cheap for a turbo like that.
If it is garbage, how much can I expect to pay for a turbo like that?

that square stamp on the compressor housing would make me very suspicious where that turbo came from. Spect to pay between 450 and 550 for a original garret unit.

thats exactly what mine looked like. Payed 200 for it. It lasted a good 20K before the seals went. Then i bought another for $170 still going. The one that i blew im sending out to Blaast performance to get rebuilt for $250 though

The biggest problem I have seen with these turbos are the seals blowing out...these turbos have tendency to be unbalanced.

Re: (integraXTC)
if you get the 170 dollar one you will have to grind down that square stamp on it which is isnt a big deal then you can just send it out to blaast performance and have it rebuilt for $250 so you have a reliable turbo for 420. heres blaast performance's website.
