What turbo is this
I scored (i think) today
Found this Turbonetics turbo at the junkyard on a Volvo 740.
The compressor housing looks new as well as the compressor housing backing plate and bolts.
The bolt pattern on the back of the housing is slightly larger than the normal a T3. They cut the clips to fit and redrilled the wastegate actuator.
I'm pretty sure this is some type of upgrade from Turbonetics. Just not sure what. The outlet of the compressor is definetly bigger than stock.
The rest of the turbo looks like the stock one but the exhaust fan might be bigger. not sure.
any ideas? i know the turbine housing is crap cuz of the volvo flange, but that can be switched.

Re:What turbo is this
If you girls need an SVO turbo, there is one in the junkyard (i hid it in a speshal place because i didint have the 100 dollars for it) its a 60/63 T3, and a saab T3 
they charge 100 bucks for the turbo's the saab had around 83k and the SVO had 100k (i think it was 103 or 107) but they both felt REALLY good. one had side damage and the other was rearended.
