Compressor fin - Cause for concern?
Pulled my intake off today while fixing something on my NA6 and noticed this raised line on the fin of my compressor blade. Is this a cause for concern? Any idea what the deposits on it are from?
Further details on my setup in the meet and greet thread. Turbo is a 2560 ball bearing.
Any help appreciated. Thanks.

I wouldn't worry about it, I've seen worse that we're still working fine.
Also, if you took the intake off to see it, then that's your compressor wheel, not your turbine.

Glad to hear it's not too much of an issue. Thanks for the fast reply.
Yeh, I was talking about the white paint. Don't remember it being there when I bought the turbo 2nd hand, but I just may not have paid it any attention. Just caught my eye because of the raised line on the compressor fin.
