It's 'brand' new, not 'bran', bran is a cereal.

Also, no R5 was fitted with a T3 as far as I know, and if it's a metro turbo T3 it'll be pretty useless on much else (they're pretty useless on a metro IMO)

You can find posts/replies under that user name using the search button, but the user name isn't in the members list.
Most strange!

A/R 0.42 on the compressor side is standard Metro, but you can't see the A/R of the turbine housing in any of the photos.
If it is brand new then it might not be the right one as, when I was researching this a while ago, I got the impression the standard Metro 0.25 turbine housing hasn't been available (new) for ages.

If so, aren't they A/R 3.something (can't remember the exact number but 3.6, 3.8???) The RS Turbo is bigger but seems to be the smallest one available for a T3 now.
Metros were surely all A/R 2.5 ???

The core may well be brand new - but if the housings are in good shape, it makes sense to use re-conditioned ones, hence it could look 'used' but the important part (the centre housing) would be new*.








* assuming this one is new LOL
