What's up guys? I need confirmation that this is a 20g turbo before I put in on Ebay. It has a Turbonetics emblem on it, but I can't seem to find any pics of one like it. It was given to me with my car and I want to know what I have.

Here are the pics:

Could be a 20g for a sy/ty? 19c? Not sure myself...Look at the misu emblem on the hotside
 
It doesn't look like a 20g... Atleast a normal 20g. 20g's usually have 6 fins(and 6 smaller ones set back), while it appears that turbo has 8 (and maybe 8 set back, can't really tell). That is a 20g style compressor cover.

I'm going to say 17c/19c off a syclone/typhoon like said earlier. Punch the part numbers in on Google and see if anything comes up. It's definately a Garrett hotside.
 
I searched and found this: [SYTY] Stock turbo identification: Part 2

It has the same # on the exhaust side as in that link, so it looks like it might be from a Sy/Ty. It has the same # imprinted on the center clamp thing too. It does have 8 fins, with 8 set back.

I can't seem to find any worthwhile #'s on the compressor side. It has a 8-5 (maybe 8-57) as you can see in the picture. It also is stamped with 7e06, which google brings nothing up. Then, by the outlet where my hand is there is 40114. Not sure what to make of all those #'s.

I bet this thing would put my 16g to shame.
 
It does look like a Hahn Super 16G. I just had mine out to repair a leaking exhaust gasket, & it looks just like that one. Note the welded 90 degree elbow on the compressor housing outlet . . . :talon:
 
I think it is a Hahn Racecraft Super Turbo, not sure if it is a 16g or 20g. I have a 16g from Hahn that looks just like that but they can change the internals from a 16 to a 20. The one i have is for a 1st gen, it does not have the Turbonetics elbow though, they only do that for 2g. Go to their website Hahnracecraft.com and look under super turbos and it will probably look just like the one you have here.
 
that is a hahn turbo looks like a super 16g. Not a 20g because the inlet would be thinner around the edges.

The outlet where your hand is (the elbow that's welded on) Looks to be just a Turbonetics 90* elbow. Usually a shop will weld it on so you won't need a coupler there(expensive coupler)... So that number probally won't mean much to you.

The thing is, the "c" wheel turbos are usaully designed for bigger motors, and mid range. The "g" wheels are more so well suited for higher boost/ higher rpm, hence why a 16g which is not a whole lot bigger than a 14b will provide you with a good amount more airflow up higher in the revs, and still be effiecent. 14b's are designed for midrange. Honestly, this turbo could make a bit more power, but I'd say getting it to work might be too much hassle.

my $.02
 
Local friend picked up a 17c with the mitsu/t3 td06 hotside. Definatly not that wheel the 17c looks like a 14b style compressor wheel.
 
what are you paying for it? it looks prettty nasty. i t will get the job done,it looks like. it looks like someone welded on the elbow.i was just looking at my 20g and it looks a little bit like this turbo.this quys might be right,it might be a hahns super sleeper 16g.
 
The compressor cover is too small to be a 20G. It's definitely a Hahn Super-16G style cover and 10cm2 hotside, with a modified compressor wheel. To get the real info, you'd have to pull the compressor cover and do some measuring.

That's a real half-assed way to attach the wastegate actuator....it might've worked fine that way on your car, but I'd rotate the housings enough to bolt it down with both mounting bolts before listing it. Let the actual alignment up the the new owner. If I were an unknowing potential buyer, I'd question why only one mounting tab of the actuator was bolted down.
 
Just for reference:

Comparing the size of the compressor cover in relation to the exhaust housing, it's definitely a 16G cover.

I'm not paying anything for it. When I bought my car, the guy just gave it to me. It's been sitting in my room for a couple years collecting dust. I'm going to clean it up before I sell it, I just wanted to know what I have. Thanks for the input.
 
If it's any consolation, I can visibly see on the compressor cover of the turbo you're selling the remainder of the cast part number. You can barely make it out, but it reads: "8-57" which would be center part of the "49178-57700" number found on the Super 16G's compressor cover.

The Mistu compressor cover prefixes are:
49177 = TD04
49178 = TD05
49179 = TD06

You'll see on the compressor cover of the 20G I posted 49179-54900; which tells you that is a TD06 turbo. However, don't forget that some TD06 20G's can come with TD05H turbines!
