Default Is this a BB turbo?

Just got this turbo off Ebay, seller said it was new from garret. It has a Serial plate that says Garret and Honeywell, and the Model is GT2560. Looked on TurboByGarrett.com and they list turbo's with this number, but they are all GT25##R, and i'm pretty sure R means BB, and those AR specs dont match this one. This one has a .60 Cold side and .67 Hot side, unsure of the trim. I'm also confused that its smaller than my SC5031, but has larger AR numbers, but i think i kinda understand how that works. Also how might this function on a stock B16, not lookin to make Huge HP numbers, lookin mostly for a good useable powerband, hopin for 12's in a crx.
Anyway, here's pics:






Precision on the left, GT25 on the Right.

thats not ball bearing, ichinsobose just installed one of those on his ls turbo the other weekend. not sure how good it works.

i cant imagine it would be so good.

joseph davis would be interested in that turbo if you decided not to use it btw.
