I just bought a 94 Camaro with a Vortech T-trim. I took the head unit apart and this is what I found. Notice the pieces that appear to be "missing" on the impeller. It doesn't look like it was broke or anything, I am hoping it was done to balance it. If anyone could help me out that would be great.

Never seen anything like it before. It doesn't appear to be caused by any kind of failure, but as if material was removed intentionally. I wouldn't worry about it. How does the blower perform?

I don't know, I bought the car with a blown motor. The shaft feels real tight and doesn't move around or anything.

I would call the guys at vortech and ask them.

I will do that, but does anyone else have any ideas?

Vortech will know...may be the way they balance the wheel.

I've seen plenty of turbo wheels look like that. It is for balancing. I'd call just to make sure though.

Thanks, that is what I thought. I just called them too and they told me the same thing.
