If you look close you could see the grooves and bend spots the turbine has in it from the shaft play at the bottom of the fins

Chevy-Rdn-High's 1996 Eagle Talon

Yup there it is , ungodly amount of shaft play and blow seals...

Chevy-Rdn-High's 1996 Eagle Talon

Just Ordered a God Speed Project Super 20g Turbo , New Manual Boost Controller and will be fixing my Flex Pipe that was leaking forever.

Nice talon man, very clean. It's got a 6 bolt swap, right? Also, just wondering if you're using the stock MAF?
