Thanks!!
Thanks for all the help, what was thought to be white paint was actually a reflection, the scarring on the wastegate I believe to be what everyone said it was, and yes the oil line is damaged, but it shouldn't cause any harm to the application. Once again, thanks!!!

No, people said it was damaged to the point it should be returned, when CLEARLY the only damage was to the return line.
Anyone who knows about turbos would look at those pics and think nothing of it, everything looked 100% normal except the return line.
Basicly alot of people where commenting on things they know nothing about. which seems to happen ALOT on ALL WRX/subbie forums.

Because if you know about turbos, that is a VERY common thing. It is expected to be there.
I am trying to educate people. I just don't like to see people post stuff out of their ***.. It is bad for the community..
What can i do about it you ask? try to tell people correct information, and point out the people who talk out their ***
I know you are just playing around. I don't mind.. Just had a bad day and when i read like the 1st 4 responses it pissed me off..

I thought it was bent to, and I spend all day surrounded by these damn turbos!
The oil return is not big deal...just make sure you get a nice tight hose around it to ensure it doesn't leak.

But i ALWAYS see it on turbos..

and now that you have finally read the answer for your self maybe you should stop talking out of your ***. the turbos ive looked and worked with have had red paint on the blades not white. and as i said before the picture LOOKED <-----read that) like the blade was bent.
the only one thats making a fool of themselves and making the "community look bad" is you. stop post whoring.

Yeah, thats what you said...
And what does the color have to do with anything.. Alot of places use different colors, i have seen red, blue, green, and white..
Anyway, i was not picking on you directly anyway, but if you want me to, just let me know..

Wow you can use the quote key also. You are so special. Now try to use that BIG BIG brain of yours and put 2 and 2 together. If the turbos i've worked on had red paint and i saw white paint that, to me, looked like a bent blade. Why would I say anything othern than the turbo is busted get a new one? Does that make sence to you. I hope it does it really cant get much easier.
You came on here and started talking $hit. Now everyone in this thread realizes that you are usless and need to stop posting. Dont turn this into a flame war.(i will tear you apart)

You all need to stop hating on each other. All of the comments that were made regarding my turbo were valid and noted. Thanks to those of you that answered what you thought by the pictures that I posted. Don't turn my thread into a flame war. I actually thought that the first 4 replies were funny (especially the first one) and they made me take a second look at my turbo to make sure the fins were not bent. I think we all make informed decisions based on the replies that are received. If not get a professional that can answer them for you. geez take a rest you all.
