Default What the hell is this!!!

hey guys im new here and have a few questions i am sure you have all heard before. i bought this turbo for 300 bucks and just love it. i was told it is a t25 ball bearing turbo, but am completely lost about what it came off of, were i can get the gaskets for it, and why the hell is the oil inlet hole so big? does it matter how much oil gets into the oil inlet? the ar. is .48 and the exhuast is .49 here is a website were i found the turbo and the serial numbers and stuff. http://www.sfxperformance.com/parts/TUST25BB-TURBO.htm
if you guys have any info on about what it is off of or were i can get the gaskets to complete the hook i would greatly appreciate it. im trying to hook you up with some pics right now.

thanks guys.

No it doesnt matter how much oil gets in there , turbos can survive with a suprisingly small amount of oil.
As long as your oil return line flows straight down ie. is gravity friendly.
You can most probably find t25 gaskets at the local wreckers for cheap , or make them .

do you guess know how the downpipe is supposed to hook up, i mean there is the gasket, but what keeps it sealed and from letting exhaust escape out of the sides? is there supposed to be a donut or another ring in between the plate and turbo?
