Thanks in advance.

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

At first glance it looks like a T3 .42/.48 are there any numbers inside the housings to tell you the A/Rs? If it is what I think it is, the wastegate is set at ~8 psi. What time is it in England now?

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

There is some numbers ill have to have a closer look then write them in here, i hope the wastegate is set to 8psi (fingers crossed)

BTW its 3.20pm

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

On the exhaust housing= 22KO
Back of inlet housing is= 7.700.671.051
= 465544-2
=AC0184
Oil inlet= a
outlet= m/w depending on what way round it is, thats all i can find at the minute.

def looks like a .42/.48 t3... great turbo for a stock z6... made 217 whp @ 10.5 on one... it looked nearly identical to that one

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

Funnny ive just been reading about your new turbo and thought 217whp is a bit more than what im aiming for lol, ill be more than happy if i can get 170whp.
Hopefully its the same as your old one!

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

That turbo is sized pretty well for your goal. Boost that bitch!

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

yeah.. it looks it... although it maybe a 45 trim instead of the 50 trim mine is... either way... both will get you your goals

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

Nice thanks for the help, ive still got a lot of ---- to gather before i can start fitting stuff, and i need to find someone to do some welding,
So far up to now for the turbo, intercooler, dump valve, steel plate for adapter its cost like £75 english pounds. no bad considering i could get a half complete ebay kit for £600pound lol.

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

I got two of those thangs

Looks like .42 .48

I got mine out the boneyard for $50 off a saab

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

word, got my 42. 48. from a volvo for $50 from the junkyard with a garrett rebuit tag and had a friend machine down the stupid recessed exhaust inlet down for $10.

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

inside the comp housing outlet = .42.

inside exh inlet = .48

or the other way around

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

That's right. That turbo could be a .36/.42 also. It's unlikely because all the .36 hotsides I've seen had that funky external wastegate off the exhaust housing like the Mercedes turbos, but I remember some of the Renault turbos had a .36 hotside, or maybe that was Peugeot. Either way it's a 45 trim T3. Definitely perfect for a small displacement 4-banger with horsepower goals in the 200hp> range. You should be able to get your 170whp easily with a proper tune, proper fuel support, and no leaks.

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

Nice thats what i like to hear, as long as i can beat all the n/a b16 civics round here ill be chuffed!, Everyone in my area keeps banging on about getting a b16 but they dont realise if i blow mine up its like £200 for a low miles d16 or like £1000 for a high miles b16!
Turbodftw!

Honda turds tend to neglect the logic train.

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

Christ i dont actually understand half of what you guys say lol.

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

He meanings your every day Honda boy thinks Vtech b16 are super fast :y. They fail to realize d-series+10psi= turn you out :6.

Re: Help me i.d. this please.
 

Aah i get it, i wish a bunch of you HMT guys could ship your cars over here and give these b16 guys a proper ass whippin lol, I suppose ill just have to wait till mines done.
