Turbo Question, to buy or not
To buy, been offered a VF Turbo but has a crack starting to appear by the housing (usual place), very small crack, should I walk away or will the Turbo ok?
Any advice appreciated.

A lot of vf turbos have small crack on cast exhaust part and the one i had boosted without any issue
If the price is low and there is no shaft play i would go for it.

Thanks guys, can't seem to find one without the crack on the housing, the chap says there's no issues with power, thats a good point it can be welded over I guess.
He wants £300 for it?
Thanks

300 is normal rate for vf35s (nothing special cheap:P).....as it is relatively old turbo it is hard to find one withou crack.
If you do weld it it will crack somwhere else so just leave it
