Kim Before you buy something i urge you to do your homework on how to distinguish between what you want and what you already have.

This will take alot of the "wonder if i got screwed" out of buying parts on ebay. Take a couple days and search all the sites and get acquainted with the little differences in every part.

I've only had the car about 3 months now and most of that time it was non op so I'm still learning here and there, its getting there and fortunately most of the guys on here are good and honest.
If I have any doubts there's always paypal ha ha
thanks

I think the seller Lart is referring to uses stock photos. He is a nice Guy, but young and his opinion of condition will most likely not match an enthusiasts view of an items condition.

I suggest people find out the facts before they blame someone for ripping someone else off, especially when the accused had nothing to do with it.
I also think its worth noting for future reference that the turbo in question has three tell tale signs of its origin on the tag.
1) the tag is red which means its a rebuild
2) the "AU" in 951 123 131 AU, Also stands for rebuilt
3) the "6720" in 5326 970 6720P, stands for K26/6
The seller obviously didn't know what he had. He claims in the description that it came from a turbo S. In fact, Porsche lists the part number 951 1232 131 AU as a direct replacement for the 951 '86-'89. So, in the event the turbo S turbocharger needed replacement, this K26/6 would have been the recommended replacement. One could make the case that porsche screwed the owner of the donor car.
