Seaway, can you post up the CHRA you bought?

I have done the turbo rebuild, I sent one to G-Pop Shop. It runs perfectly but it was pricey, like $350.
'95 854 T-5R, Motronic 4.4, 185k
'98 V70, T5 tune-injectors-turbo, LPT engine, 304k, daily driver
'06 S60 R, 197k
'07 XC70, black, 205k
'07 XC70, willow green, 212k
'99 Camry V6 :shock: 153k
gone: '96 NA 850 210k, '98 NA V70 182k, '98 S70 NA 225k, '96 855 NA 169k

This is the one I used:

I still have my old one and I am likely going to have it rebuilt and then drop it in when i get a chance. The one I used does not leak and performs as it should, but for a troubleshooting purposes I would like to know that I have the correct, factory specific part installed. I didn't have the time to wait for a rebuild when I installed the eBay one, as i couldn't have my car not running for more than a day, so my options were limited. That said, it has certainly been worth the $200 it cost.
