Damage Report!!
If the shaft isnt bent...then the copmressors should be fine...and judging from the pics...the exhaust turbine doesnt look to beat up. If you can get the turbo to AP or Levi, I can take it up to my turbo guy and have him check it out. I will call him in the AM to see what he can do on a new exhaust housing.
who is your turbo guy? is he any good? i dont think the shaft is bent just bc it still seemed really smooth at the end of the run. pm or post up some kind of price i would be looking at. i can get it to ap or levi on tues or weds. just let me know thanks
Kaos, this is your best right?
So did you find the limits of the stock pistons, or did you have a fueling issue?
well it didnt blow up. made 579rwhp and 596 rwtq on 10psi. dyno jet and 18 degrees max timing. this thing is beast on the street. thanks for all of the help from everybody taking it to the track tommorow. hope the rear holds up

at least it made some good numbers for stock bottom....i would go along with the other guys as well and get it rebuilt....i had my sc rebuilt after sucking water through it cause i didnt want to take the risk of breaking the new motor it was going on ....im no expert on cars but i work on pumps and all sorts of stuff on my sub and we wouldnt keep that after how the impeller looks....thats just my .02 though
The turbine he has pics of are on the exhaust side...there is no way possible that any foriegn material could have entered the compressor side. Ive seen the impellers totally broke off the wheel and not harm the shaft. If the shaft is true...than the compressor housing and the internals on the compressor side should be fine.
You've waited this long. Let the F-er sit a couple of months if you have to. Get what you want and get it done right. I would not put anything that was unsure on a brand new motor. I plan on parking mine for a couple of months to go through it if you care to join me 
Kaos send us the turbo, we will take care of it. We might be able to service your current wheel which will not cost near as much. Balancing should not be a problem as well.
