yeah. i believe trimmed fins help with higher end power as there is less restriction. in theory it would increase spool time but nothing noticeable.

as cheap as possible :) :p

Well I REALLY really want one...and if it is confirmed that it isn't actual damage, I may be very interested. Do you have any pictures to ensure what your friend has said? Brand new the K1's retailed from Japan for £850 or so, typically when sold in the UK they go for £600ish for a PRISTINE example (and usually on Yahoo Auctions too, though I've seen some RIGHT bargains before...like £400 for a Blitz Manifold, K1 turbo, Downpipe, and custom exhaust mid-section for a Paseo mind you (damnit)...with 3000km from new, for £400...), and around £450 for a very good example, and around £250-300 for something needing a rebuild.

A bargain one went on eGay recently, for £115, but that was pumelled into a pile of smouldering Britz metal - seized shaft, collapsed bearings, crack in the exhaust housing etc...But yeah, could you pm me details and pictures again please chap?

£115, doesnt sound like a bargain. if the shaft has seized and the bearings knackered and wastegate cracked its worth nothing as its wrecked.
