Need your help/Opinion...Hybrid Turbo?
Alright, I was offered (what I think is) a pretty good deal. It's a precsion .63 t4 turbo, used 1,000 miles, NO shaft play for $225 shipped. This is where I need your help. I asked him why he's sellin' it and he said he "Had it on a insane d16 and blew the block because it was bored any but my brother found me a great turbo kit for a b series so building a b16a1 and gna turbo that"
Anyway, after looking at the picture I noticed it said .70 A/R cold side not .63, so I asked him about it and he said "yeah the housing is .70 but its a hybrid so its .63". So heres my question...Any ideas as to what that means?
Here are the pics of the snail.
He also said for an exta $100 he would throw in a tial downpipe and wastegate 38mm but I'm not gona do that.

I guess I should go ahead and get it seeing as it's such a cheap price and if it ends up not being what I want then I can always re-sell it for more, right? Do you guys think it will work with my setup? Will it spool too slow?
here is my setup
Engine is a D16y7
Eagle H-beam Rods
Vitara Pistons
New Rod bearings (
ACL Main Bearings
OEM head gasket
Walbro 225 fuel pump
OEM Timing Belt
new water pump
Crower Springs, Retainers, Valves
3-angel valve job (laskey Racing)
AEM adjustable cam gear
AEM fuel rail
ARP head studs
Edelbrock Intake Mani.
Throttle body
Zex 59300 cam
T3/t4 turbo with .63 exhaust housing So, then suposably this turbo is the same size right?
Injectors
Hondats S200
OEM motor Mounts
FMIC
Intercooler piping
Custom Down pipe
Dump Tube
Custom manifold (so I can keep A/C)
Greddy BOV
Tial 38mm waste gate

Anyone else feel as if the seals are leaky by looking at the inlet and compressor fins?
Turbo is a T3/T4 (hybrid) .70/.63 as stated above, but I'm like 98.76% sure it's .70 T4 compressor with .63 T3 turbine. That's how it goes not the other way oso. I think, ha.

Hmm. I never noticed that. Good eyes. He claims that it's perfect.
Anyone else?
