ok so yes im a new member and im sure some of you will tell me to die but i need help
can anyone help me identify the specs on this turbo so i can figure out which one it is. that way i can decide if i should run it on my b16 thank you

 

Turbonetics T3

 

i mean is it just me or does that exhaust wheel look large?
running the numbers off the exhaust housing it says its a .82 a/r do you think that would be ok on my b16a2?

 

Depends how much power you want from it , but yes it will work fine.
So start reading like your life depended on it

yea probably make boost around 5500 rpms

 

thanks for the replys. haha the guy said it was old school turbonetics T3/T4 that was a stage 3 but was upraded to stage 5 and the a .63 compressor

 

It definitely looks suspiciously stage 5. That's a big turbine wheel sitting in there. Only thing is that whomever modified the hotside to accept the bigger wheel must have had seizures and be legally blind as it's rough. Wasn't that turbo on Ebay last week? It's going to spool pretty late. To verify what a/r the comp housing is just look for it stamped in the compressor outlet. It looks like a .60 a/r T04B to me, but I'm no expert.

 

thanks crx2222. i mean im no turbo expert but i knew that it ws a huge turbine wheel. haha. so how late we talking about 5500? 6000? yea it was. does it look like a .63 compressor? yea i didnt notice that helen keller had worked on it till right after i bought it. but this is gonna be my first turbo project. shooting for 250whp to 300whp on stock internals

 

Now that's the spirit
