im sure its not exactly the same logo, there may be some small differences that would keep their asses safe. why not try out the turbo if you already have it?

FYI there are whole bunch of china turbo thats made with the turbonetic "T" becasue they are making exact copy of the turbonetics without knowing, and Fook, yours is def.ly one of them.
Since they can not sell them as turbonetic, they are all being sold a regular turbo and once the buyer recvie them they are like "wow" LOL and will prob.ly try to re-sell them as the real turbonetics.

The compressor housing is not going to crack because the "glue up" one are no more. they are all casted and welded now. And a lot of time these turbo fail becasue the bearing is not oil'ed enough/at all when they are made, so they get killed a lot on firts start up. what u should do is to stick something into the fins to stop it from spinning, start it up, let it prime for a WHILE then hope it last.

i know its one of the chinese knockoffs but i didnt buy it new, so it could still be one of the older ones, any obvious ways to tell? I don't see any glue residue on it.
