some type of garrett t3. you have any pictures of the turbine side? are their any numbers on the turbine or comp. housing (i.e. .48, .63, .60, etc.)?

yeah, looks clean from the pics, more than likely a .48/.42, very common t3. as long as there's not much shaft play, i'd pay 100 for it.

he said it has 48 on the exhaust side so it must be 42. 48. right?
Would this turbo be better than a 14b for a car that is only gonna see track time?

that t3 will be good for 200whp, the 14b would also, but, with the t3, it's easier to find a manifold flanged for it, and you have countless upgrades available for later down the road that will bolt right up to your manifold if you decide to upgrade.
