Default Garrett turbo

Will this turbo be a good turbo for a stock 98 z28? This is from the seller --Garrett GT42 turbocharger. The turbo compressor side has a .72 a/r and the turbine side has a 1.22 a/r. The compressor wheel inducer diameter is a big 64 mm and the exducer is 89 mm. The turbine wheel is 67 mm. The turbine inlet is tang divided for better exhaust flow and the exhaust outlet is 3 inch. The compressor inlet is 4 inch and the outlet is approx 2.9 inch. The bearings are the standard journal type. The turbo spins great, has no play and the wheels are not at all damaged. This turbo will make big HP))) or this one Garrett Turbo Charger. This Turbo has been sent out and inspected by a professional mechanic the same way all of our units are done. Upon inspection this unit shows signs of debree passing threw the Turbine housing. Pictures show damage to the Tubine Wheel on the exhaust side. Turbine housing in good shape and has No end play or side play in shaft. Shaft spins freely. With replacement of Turbine wheel this Unit can be easily repaired, as this is the only damage to the unit. O-Ring will of course have to be replaced on Compressor housing... Exhaust Fan Wheel Bore is 80 mm Roughly and Compressor wheel is roughly 66 mm. Exhaust A/R 1.33 Compressor A/R .066
