Shouldn't make a difference to the price. Most of them develop this crack and it makes no difference to the turbo performance at all. Very common.

what bhp are these good for and would they be a worth while upgrade to a vf43 on a forged hawk running 350bhp?

fine initial cracks have little impact BUT if it eventually goes past the wastegate then it will bleed boost
