TB0348? sounds like a volvo 740 serial. Does it have a standard T3 inlet or is there a circle pushed out of it?

same as a T3 60 trim, but i think the turbine is either a .82 or somthing, its not your standard stage 1 turbine wheel and housing.

so you guys think this would be a decent spooler on a B2 or will this thing lag like a bitch cause id like to run about 8lbs daily maybe 10 but dont wanna wait for it to come in till about 4000 rpm since it will be a flate rate rebuild nothing upgraded just fresh pieces
