That is definetly a Dodge K car turbo, not a bad unit,a true T3, just hard to fit on a Honda, or any motor with a front monted exhaust manifold. The Dodge engine had the exhaust on the back of the block, so the down pipe/O2 housing faces to the rear, if you mount it on the front of the motor it points at the block, turn it around and it points at the radiator. You can take this piece off and make an adapter plate to go in its place for your down pipe but then you have to run an external waste gate, the waste gate flaper is in the downpipe/O2 housing. And no other T3 flaper will fit the Dodge housing, the bolt paturn is diferent, the mounting flange is wierd also, not a standard T3 flange.

Let me help clerify you. TBirds and Mustangs used Garretts. The Ford Probe used the IHI.

Re:help identify my t3
i was already planning utilizing a tial wastegate, how do i go about taking off the internal wastegate though? just remove it? do i have to do anything else? basically what im saying is what all do i have to do to make it work? i've got an HF manifold and i just ordered a t3 adapter plate, but i have to finish the bolt patterns on the plate. its basically just a 3/4" hunk of mild steel...
