Default 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.
