I put on a Wicked Wheel a few weeks back and my original wheel is still in decent shape. Fins aren't "sharp" but not beat up either. I guess for someone with a trashed OEM wheel & tight budget this would be good. Anyway, it's free, just cover the shipping is all I ask. Here's a pic:
Nice offer Brenden. I could use it to put on my OEM turbo only if some one else don't need it for the turbo they are running now. I was going to clean up my old turbo and sell it and your wheel is in much better shape than my stock one is.
this is the wheel inside the turbo that compresses the air

That's the use I figured it would go to more than likely. If you want it, it's yours. Just PM me an address.
Oh ok, thanks. I have a Garett turbo, so i dont think i would need this?
The stock turbo is a Garett turbo.
You would only need this if the wheel in your turbo is not in good shape anymore. If you have a leak somewhere between your air filter and the turbo, there's a good chance yours is in worse shape than this.
I know mine is pretty sad looking, but I am going to go with a WW if I have it all apart, so I'll go ahead and pass. Mine probably had a leaky airbox for less than 5000 miles, and the compressor wheel is all jagged and nasty looking. Engine is still in good shape, and I need new up pipes anyways- so I'm just hitting it all at once in the spring.

I bought it all at once, but did them separately for who-knows-what reason. Mine's still in decent shape and with the economy the way it is I figured I'd keep up the tradition of the brotherhood. With all the help I've gotten from people in this forum, it's the least I can do.

Oh, I agree. I think it's great what you're doing. I'd take it, but for 75 bucks I'm just putting in the WW if I am going to take it all the way apart. These guys have been invaluable several times in the past.
I have a stock air box that leaks if anyone needs it....
No worries about the reps brother!! I'll get it wrapped up & shipped out tomorrow to you, USPS Priority flat rate boxes are great!! You should have it by Monday at the latest.
