Default so i got ths new turbo off ebay, but it wasent what i expected

i just happen to stuble accross this on ebay with 2 mins left so in a hurry, i bidded on it.

its a brand new garrett. the listing said it was a t3/t4. it was supposly had the standard t3 flange, but when it got here today i seen that it had twin scroll big (t4?) flange. it have a vban dp which i am really not goning to use. i am not 100% sure if i am going to keep this turbo yet. i was going to save it for my 4g64 (97 galant 2.4 block)/ 1g 4g63t (92 turbo eclpse head) galant build. i wanet expecting a twin scroll. i am some what new to turbos so i am not sure if this one is good for my set up, but i know it dosent fit my hald *** obx manifold

should i:

1: sell the turbo and but another
2: keep this turbo, its better for my set up and get a different manifold

ar50 m-24 rc




1.32

probably a couple hundred but that turbo is useless for anything but a diesel. that exhaust wheel/housing is way mismatched to that comp side. T4 1.32 A/R. hope thats going on a 3+ liter motor.

You could send it to BLAAST and have him put on a smaller exhaust housing/wheel, probably could make it a T3 flange as well.

Looks like something out of a Catipiller.

Strap it to the tow-truck and yard a house.
