You need a new comp wheel mate. The bent blades and eroded tip are no good.

Yea definitely going to see if I can get a new comp wheel and bearing done, While I am there ill make sure that there is no housing damage aswell. What would be the cause of the eroded tips? the front wheel looks very dry, im going to get a new oil feed line and inline filter before new gear goes in.

Could the bent wheel/shaft play be the cause of such power loss?

Ok Bruce called me today and said he has found the problem. The tune that's currently in it has corrupted/lost files etc and is causing issue with the boost solenoid witch is causing boost to pulse. He also found a few other minor issues with it and getting a completely new flash tune done! Hoping to get it back Monday afternoon, I'll keep this updated

Yea I told him they were bent, he said wont cause much off a issue but definitely needs replacing in the future, couldn't really find a price on a new comp wheel and bearing for it. going to speak to bruce about it Monday when I pick the car up, he said if I had upgraded the cooler he could get some decent power out of it

Farking computers man. If my car "lost files" I'd have to find some good antivirus for it...seriously though does that mean the ECU is in need of replacing?

Fingers crossed for you dude. Having less power than a NA XR6 wouldn't be fun.
