I hate these "name this turbo" threads. It's impossible to 100% tell without measuring wheels.. But if i had to guess it's a 50trim

To be honest those pictures are pretty worthless. I can tell you it's internally gated and probably a Garrett unit. To know for sure you'd have to take off the comp cover and measure the inducer and exducer sizes of the wheel, that would tell you exactly what you had.

Damn Burnett you beat me to it

It says A/R .60 right on the turbo. Take another look fellas.

That only tells us the A/R of that comp housing, under which there could be any number of wheels.

So? That only tells the compressor housing size. It could have a lot of different wheels in it..

Damn now you beat me to it kahl!

Most likely yes. Garretts are usually only oil cooled unless they are ball bearing.

If it's something from slowboy give them a call. They would be more than likely to help you identify the turbo. You should be able to run the part number by them.
