I've never taken one apart, but that looks ridiculously large. It seems to blend into the exit port so maybe it's supposed to be like that. Does it look cast that way or does it appear broken?

my thoughts to. yeah it kind of appears to be cast that way but then the more you look at it the more you think fuk i dunnno... is it? lol. i bought it blown for real cheap.the shaft was bent and both wheels have quite a bit of damage so i was hoping to customize it to my needs and basically bought it for the nice greddy front cover and the bearing core. so hence why i want to find out if this core is gonna be reusable or not

Yikes, I would not trust it. If the wheel and compressor housing survived I would pick up a decent TD and reuse those parts.
