I am selling my gt 35/40 turbo 1.06 a/r kit. Includes the turbo with polished compressor housing, tubular stainless steel manifold, custom wastegate, stainless steel downpipe with 2 o2 bungs (extra one for wideband), wastegate plumbed back into downpipe for noise suppression, stainless steel braided lines and Earl's fittings for oil and coolant supply, gaskets, K&N filter. The turbo cartridge was replaced about 6k miles ago. I was very happy with this turbo kit. Spool time is amazing and it makes good power. Its probably one of the best street/strip setups out. I put down 430 hp to the wheels at 15 psi with this turbo. I also made 470 at 20 psi. The reason I am selling it is I am going to be testing out a new turbo kit on my car. I am asking $3000 for everything.

When you say "I ran it like this for a while and honestly couldn't tell the difference" does that mean that you shold have been able to notice a difference? Are nicks a really bad thing? Is it still for sale?

If the turbine wheel is damaged too bad, it will throw the whole assembly out of balance. The nicks happened when I popped a motor a few months ago. I decided to re-use the turbo as it was for the hell of it, and it felt just as good as new. If I didn't take the turbo apart and look, I wouldn't have been able to tell that the wheel had some minor damage. If you want I can show you pics of a really bad one for comparison.

That turbine is damaged to the point that it'll throw it out of whack. It's only a matter of time. Majestic Turbo in Waco, TX can fix it. I believe it runs about $150 with shipping.
