Call the place you bought it from. Warranty it out. Is the turbo leaking oil?

the turbo has scratches on one side of the housing. I think you will be fine, looks like you got a shit load of compressor surge at one time or another and it just barely hit the side. The scratch isn't all the way around, so the play isn't that fucked up....IDK, lets pull the block now and have fun with your mangled rod(s)....lol

if you bought it from precision call and ask if it can be returned. NONETHELESS they will blame it on you and make you pay 297.oo bucks like they did me!!!!!!!

but they will fix it.

dont know why one of thier turbos would have done this cause they have pretty good bearings and boast about side load protection.

but you could atleast call em and ask

sure you can prove it. Whats your payment method? Paypal? go to paypal.com and search your transactions, then print it out. If you did it with a CC or Debit card, use internet banking to search back and print it out. Cash, review your ATM withdrawals through Internet banking. You can prove it, don't get screwed mang. Precision gives you a 1yr warranty anyway.
