- 98 Jetta TDI AHU 1.9L (944 TDI swap in progress) I moved so now i got nothing but an AHU in a garage on a pallet.
I've seen worse. I would send it to a turbo shop and have them clean up the edges and rebalance it.
What happend? No air filter ? Looks like a cold air intake pos pod filter was used.

I don't know what size your compressor wheel is, but there may be a newer style available with the same size profile. I do wonder where all the wear came from, and any decent turbo shop should be able to polish the comp wheel and rebalance it.

I have no idea, just bought the turbo. It doesn't seems to great for me i guess the hardest part now is going to find a replacement compressor wheel.
The compressor wheel is 68/50mm, it would be nice to find something that won't need machining.

not even close, turbo shops are cheap for repairs, about $100 for the job to ballance. you can't just take material off and expect it to last.

As I said, effect in balancing is hardly measureable, within tolerances. I'm not suggesting to take material off to smooth up those marks completely. Only if there are some small bits that may break away.

Like Markus said, just rebalance it , it will be as good as new.
