he341 same as the hy35 type D, Comes off the 03-04 5.9 cummins. The guy claims it has 95k miles, doesn't burn oil, and was pulled to go to a bigger turbo/injectors. The only reason for posting this thread is so see if you guys see any signs I should be worried about such as the oil residue (?) on the compressor housing, and does the exhaust housing look like it was burning oil? Or just soot from rolling coal?
I'm hesitant to buy used since 3 years ago when first turboing my KA I bought an sr t25 from a guy on here for $140 that turned out to have horrible in/out play, and burnt tons of oil.

Been wanting to go bigger on my stock block ka-t for like 2 years now, finally have a job and some extra cash so I'm starting towards it. Already have 740cc injectors, n62 maf, an enthalpy 93/e85 tune and an ISIS t25, but I've been ready to upgrade the turbo for awhile now.

Thanks in advance zilvians.
