I would shy away from the turbo simply because it has never had a proper filter on it judging by the screen. Who knows what has gone through it at some point. Just spend the little extra and get a brand new one instead.

Maybe its ok, but if not, you are out more money to replace/fix it so in the long run a new one would be the safest and maybe cheapest bet.

/\ /\ /\ seems a little high for a used turbo. just my two pennies. im not huge into turbos so i might be wrong but knowing what my buddy charges for his * Brand New* turbos. that seems a little high.
