    So I bought a VF39 off a guy on nasioc and its got-
    Ceramic coated compressor housing (by Deadbolt)

    Ported turbo inlet, ported turbo outlet, ported wastegate (by Deadbolt)

    *Jet-hot coated turbine housing (by Deadbolt)

    *No Cracks in exhaust housing

    Deadbolt 1820 Compressor Wheel


    The down side is that its "blown" so I'm assuming it needs a rebuild, is it worth keeping this thing and installing it on my 2003 wrx wagon that is already stage 2 and fully catless? I should I dump the money into the blown turbo and supporting mods? Feels like I might be going down an expensive road and not coming back...

    hmmm good questions.

    depends on how much a rebuild will be.

    I also might have some performance stuff for sale next month. Hehe. if your interested in that.
