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

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.
