I took my spare turbo apart last night in preparation for what I'm going to call a Stage 1 upgrade and HP rebuild.
I bought this turbo as a "rebuildable core" off of ebay several months ago. It's actually off of an ATS, but looking up the 16 Camaro turbo p/n shows that the same p/n is used all the way as far back as the 2013 ATS. I only paid $150 for this turbo off of ebay, not knowing how bad or even if it was bad at all. Upon disassembly, the actual condition of the turbo guts was great. The only problem with this turbo was that the connector on the valve that operates the vacuum actuator is cracked. It will cost me $120 to replace, and what Gm calls a solenoid is missing, that's another $140. I will probably just swap these parts off of the turbo currently on the car before I put this one on after its completed.
Now on with the pictures...
Upgrade parts are on order, expected to show up next week.
