Re: what kind of turbo is this?
you can see it says airesearch on the turbing housing. compressor housing looks like it might match a regular t3 bolt pattern. u would have to check, and the wheel size might be different. but worth a shot.
looks like it has a built in bypass valve and wastegate.
if you can get that to work, it would be cool to see how it well or shitty it works..
