HELP: What turbo is this?
 
Ok, I did a search here and over the net, I could not find any real deal info on this turbo.
Can anyone identify what this is and what A/R it has?
Its a nissan turbo but i sure don't know where i came from.
Thanks...

post a pic where you can see the exhaust housing. Also post any numbers that you have from the housing.

you don't think it's out of a twin turbo 300zx? didn't they tell you what it was before you bought it?

Re:HELP: What turbo is this?
 
the person whom i bought it from does not know where it came from also :(

the compressor inlet does not have any numbers in it. but the out side of it has a #3 written inside.

if its a .42/.48 does anyone have any compressor maps for it? will it be good for a b16a that would boost up to 15psi with an e-manage, forged pistons/rods, i'm aiming for 250 to 300whp.

search for a compressor map, but no, it won't be effecient at 15 psi on a b16

that turbo is made for about 200hp not 300

too bad, i guess i would have to slap this turbo on some other engine and save some money for a super 60.

Isnt that because that engine would have 2 turbos stock?So if one turbo was good for 200hp then 2 would be good for 400 ;).
