Talking VF39 Before & After Port&Polish

I have taken some pics of a friend of mine VF39 before it was sent to deadbolt and after. While the turbo was shipped from Hawaii to North Carolina it was damaged some how So Jerry put on a VF34 cold side, i wonder how it will perform on the STi? If any has any clue, LMK because i sure don't know. But here are the pics of the turbo b4 and after. :banana:

Here is a pics of a VF30 next to the VF39. The VF30 is cleary a little bigger than the 39. So what is there to gain when a VF30/34 cold side is mated to a VF39 hotside??

VF39/34?

Here is the pic of the VF34 cold side and 39 hotside together. Notice how the turbo outlet (the part were all the air gets pushed out to the intercooler) is not bent over to the side like a VF39. The 30/34 outlet will have serious fitment issues when using the stock intercooler hoses.

Wow, maybe someone dropped it on the docking floor or something like that. On the deadbolt site it says to have the cool side vent aimed a certain way in the box you package it in.
