I Know my car currently has an eBay 16g that boosts well and is in good shape, but starting to leak a little oil so I want to rebuild it.

I know most are the big shaft center section, but I think it may be one of the older eBay turbos with the standard sized shaft.

How do I identify so I know what rebuild to buy?
 
Thanks :thumb:

Got ambitious last night and my turbo is laying in pieces in my living room now ready to be ported. Ought to be pretty easy to measure! Looks like it doesn't need much porting either (appears to have had a mild port done). Hardest part should be opening up the wastegate hole to actually utilize that 34mm flapper. Boost creep was close to putting me in the mental ward! Stay at 16psi when I set it there, not start climbing to 20 by 4500.
