You're going to lose a little bit of compression (should be way under 10%, more like 1%), so I doubt you'd feel it (maybe a couple of HP).

The rotor face is machined, so is this a turbo or non-turbo rotor - 9.7 or 9.0?

It's an 9.0 FD rotor I was going to use it for a S5 13B turbo rebuild. I had considered swapping it into the other housing so that the momentum of the engine would always be pushing the apex seal away from the gap.

I sent the seller a PM with the same pic and he said he'd replace it soon as I got it back to him.
