well it was blown when i got it but what happen was he bought the full racing beat exhaust and didnt upgrade the fuel pump or system at all and it was boosting up too 14psi. so now its blown a seal. im going to sell the whole thing though everything in the engine bay.

Depending on what seal you are talking about, a broken seal could cause quite a bit of internal damage making the housing or side plate useless. If you have the engine out, tear it apart. I could be interested in the core if everything minus the seals is intact.

well it blew the apex seal. now i havent been driving it since it happened. but it could have been damaged. im waiting for my j spec before i remove the engine. but i want to sell everything all in one including the turbo, ecu and intercooler. i really dont have time to take the engine apart so i would be selling it as is assuming the worse. the engine looks real clean though.
