Thats an RHB3 of some sort used on Suzuki, Isuzu, Daihatsu, also on Yanmar (boat applications). Call them up and ask them for the spec. It could be anything from an AY71 to a VZ9, it seems like it's definately an RHB3 though.

Yep RHB3.
IDK what it's from, sixsick is the resitend expert.
RHB3's are also extremely common on small diesel applications. They're used by many makers on skid-steers (Bobcats), and small loaders/auger equipment, generators etc.

Very true. Not many people realize that turbochargers extend FAR past HMT Honda's.

Depending on what you're installing it on, the RHB3 "family" are good for 5 m³/min max which equates to roughly 175 CFM max (choke). You're on your own as far as VE for the motor that you're installing it on, but the RHB3 family are commonly found on motors smaller than 1.5L but can be used as high as 1.6L. It would be worthless to do so but they're installed on such motors to give the "wow" effect and make you "feel" like you're getting some torque out of what would normally be less than a 100 or so hp engine.

Actually it's not. It would be perfect for a 1.5~1.6L Honda with minimal boost looking to gain 10+ hp
