Is This Turbo I Bought Absolutely No Good?
lol, couldnt think of what to call the thread. I just bought this turbo from mahcivic, its a T3 .60/.63
Just edited this because I was just told this snail is completel garbage, because of the shaft play. If you look at the turbo the play Im talking about is from the right side to the left side. Wanna know if I just got screwed, thanks
Here is the nwely noticed crack in the exhaust manifold, was marked in yellow so theres no way it was unseen before shipping

Re:Who Can Name All The Pieces On The Turbo Game....
In the first pic, the gold fitting on the compressor housing (just one) is used to run a vacuum line to your wastegate, internal or external. The other two brass fittings on the center of the turbo look like they're for coolant lines. The blue fitting will be your oil inlet.
In the second pic, you can use a downpipe flange that only has the hole for the turbine outlet, and block off the other (internal wastegate). Or you can just get the flapper welded closed. Either way. Then you'll need to have a flange welded to your manifold to connect an external wg.
Third pic is your oil return.
Fourth pic, yes, that's what you connect the filter to... and if you don't have a gasket for connecting it to the compressor housing, at least use some gasket material.

In the third pic I was refering to the flange looking type thing, not the brass connector. Which were you talking about when you said oil return
Ya Id easily make a gasket for the intake connector
Kind of cool that I actually have the turbo now and can figure out exactly how everything works
