Default need help to id turbo

this turbo was off a Saab Turbo...the turbo says....B.C.1 M27 A/R .48 Garrett......some say its a T25, but some say its a T3.....but its pretty small....the turbo flage is smaller than my B-series T3 manifold...so is it a T25 or T3..heres a pics of the turbo http://sandiego.craigslist.org/pts/102201019.html

well i brought my manifold over to see if it'll fit but it didn't...the turbo flage was too small...he said that he'll lower it to like $300..with the turbo,downpipe and intercooler...is that a good deal?...and do you know what kinda of turbo is it?

hey...stop what ur doing...dont even bother buying this turbo from him...i personally pulled a turbo
like this off a saab...i too thought it was a t3 but i wasted my time at the junk because
it was a t25...although the late model saabs are equipped with a t3 with the same specs
(as the one ur going to buy)...i believe it was off a 91 saab(model changes)...i ended up going back to the
junk and getting a t3 off an 89 volvo...but the thing is i wasted only 60 bucks for my turbo and
im guessing 50 bucks for my own labor...if ur creating ur own kit then just go to the junk and get
one of those turbos...saves a lot of money...300 bucks for something you can get for 50-100 bucks
by ur self is alot better...for that price u can get even a bigger turbo than that of a saab...

oh yeah...that intercooler looks like a freakin radiator...and the down pipe is only 25 bucks, when
u pull the turbo out of a saab...i recommend u buying a intercooler off of ebay that can at least
work with ur setup and save u a whole lot of headaches...
