Default junkyard turbo in an old Challenger?

Okay I was at the junkyard today and found a couple of allright turbo's, but I also found a Turbo Dodge Challenger, mid-80's model I think. I couldn't see the turbo at all; there was a coffee can looking thing at the end of the headers, but it looked too small for much of a snail. I asked the junkyard guy and he says there is a turbo in there. It did not look intercooled, and it did not say "turbo" on the valve cover so I think it was an early turbo dodge. Anyone have any idea what kind of turbo this is, and if so, some specs on it? Is it running about 6-7 psi? Is it worth getting for a mild turbo setup? More importantly, does anyone want to buy it if I take it off, or are they somewhat common turbo's? If you guys need more info I can always go check again, I don't think it's coming off anytime soon....

Oh yeah I forgot to mention.... it was engine code G54B, manufactured by Mitsubishi for Dodge. Hope that helps!
