Default Help me. turbo look good or no?

hey guys
I was wondering if i could get some opinions on this td04l and whether you think its in good shape or not.

My concern is the compressor blades and the dark coloration on the fins. my first td04l had perfectly clean blades but these ones are discolored. bad filter maybe? bad seals? what do you think





thanks guys i appreciate the help

-Luke

the wheel doesnt look chipped or bent or anything. i cant see any wear marks on the compressor housing from the shaft moving.

no idea on the compressor side.....on the exh side your exh. usually turns white when using race gas, so that could help explain the white color on the wheel.

discoloration is generally dirt. it should wipe off with a finger

Its not small for a honda, we are all used to T3/T4s though so it seems small.
