Some of you may have remembered that I posted a while back about a seller that screwed me over. Well, 2 months later, I receive a turbo in the mail from him. Ironically, the next day I receive the 16G I ordered after deciding I was never gonna see it.

Thing is, they're totally different. The turbo from the non-scammer has the labels "TD05H" "49178-05200" and "S 980522078" on it. And it looks like a 16G to me.

The scammer turbo is supposed to be a 16G too, but it has only the labels "A/R" ".48" and "M10" on it. Also the outlet seems to have what looks almost like a built in J bend. WTF is this thing? Did I get a T25 or 14B duped up as a 16G here?
 
Righteo, ok well we've got bad turbo :mad::

the way you know the second one is the 16g is by looking at the compressor fins, they alternate from smaller to bigger
 
Argh, scammed again. Err..still. Whatever. I suppose a T25 with shaft play is better than nothing...right? No? :laugh:

16G is in great condition though, and came with all the lines off a 1G. Thanks, guy on DSMTrader :thumb:
