What kind of turbo is this?
 

Can anyone tell me what kind of turbo this is? This is the only pic I have available. I was told its a t3/t4 Garrett with .46 trim on the intake and .60 on the exhaust.

doesnt look like any T3/T4 garrett ive ever seen. My guess is that guy has no idea wtf he is talking about

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

yeah, i mean its got no crank walk.

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

looks like one of those weird t3's with the attached BOV.

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

I love that you spend $125 on it without knowing what it is.

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

doubt it jason, look at that exhaust housing... looks like a smaller t25 or Teo4h or somthing around that size?

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! thats the funniest ---- ive ever read!!!

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

I dont know what kind of turbo that is, but the guy who you got it from is a ------- morron thats a fact.

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

i just got some more pics via email but still he's not showing where it actually says its a garret nor has he verified how its a t3t4. so what do you guys think i should do about this? misrepresentation?

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

He probably bought it for his mx6, got scammed... and is trying to recoup his money by scamming you :p

I'd get really good pictures of it all around, some real documentation from him... otherwise... don't pay... if you did... file a report with ebay and paypal(which you hopefully used).

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

yea i paid through paypal. should i do this now or try to work with him before hand?

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

I'd try to work with him first, until you confirm what it is. But remember that paypal generaly has a 30day policy, so do it quickly. If you paid with credit card through paypal, talk with the CC company and see what your timeframe is there.

I wouldn't give up on it.. but I'd really try to confirm it completely before taking a hit on a bunk turbo.

thanks for the help! ill keep ya posted

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

It looks very much like an IHI vj11 RHB5 turbo to me, not sure which one but somone mentioned an MX6 which came with one of these stock, hope this helps, id look around for other pictures of an RHB5

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

is that going to be a shitty turbo for a stock ls?

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

Pretty sure thats some sort of IHI, but Im not postive.

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

ok i got this response from him when i confronted him about the turbo not being a t3t4 garrett......"I'm selling it exactly as I bought it, and I advertised it as the same as what I bought it for, if its not as advertised, then I didn't konw it"....... thats some bs if you ask me!!! i think its time to contact paypal

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

seriously...you better expect some negative feedback for this stunt

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

me? he misrepresented the product but oh well im not getting fucked because of this.

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

I finally found a pic with a good description. Looks like its a Garrett T25 with the integral CBV. Installed on volvos very rare i guess.

Re: What kind of turbo is this?
 

Finally able to get my money refunded for the misrepresentation, had to dispute with PayPal to get the guy to do it though, just waiting on the negative feedback now.....anybody have a real t3/t4 for sale?
