Hi I am buying this turbo off this guy for 350.00 and he says its a 20G with a 16G cartridge so its like a sleeper turbo? is that what this is any help would be greatly apreciated I am very strssed out looking for turbos and have been looking for about 4 months and want to make sure I am buying the right one and it is what he says it is thanks!

Thanks again whoever helps me out! : )

I would ask the guy for specs. Ask him inducer and exducer specs for the compressor wheel and turbine wheel. Then compare them to 16g specs that are all over this site. From the pics you can probably tell by looking at the compressor wheel, but to be honest I have never messed around with a 20g or 16g maybe someone else can tell.

BTW I believe they called this a bastard 20g.

Thanks for some good advice and yes I have heard it called that, thats what he was calling it Also what kind of trim/specs am i looking for to certify its a 20G? or 16G? Also which SHOULD the numbers look more like a 20G or 16G?

 

[dsmmike50t]

It's a 20g compressor in a 16g case. You can't tell by looking at the numbers. The only way to verify which turbo this is, as far as I know, is to take the cover off and measure the compressor wheel.

Thank you very much for this !! I am just wondering about the J pipe I guess I need one becuase its for a 2G ? does it bolt right up with the O2 Housing ? tell me more about the turbo where did you get it?

Ayone elses advice is more than apreciated aswell!

 

[jenkinsfan1]

Anyone elses help would be great! I also would like to know if anyone else has run this turbbo and what kind of numbers did did you put up?

Most "sleeper" 16g's are expensive and if he only payede $450 it must be an ebay knock off. I would not buy it. Also the 16g's with 20g wheels can get surge real bad. Its when the wheel pushes more air than the housing can take, which will cause it to surge.

 

[jenkinsfan1]

Wouldnt porting it help with that I know where he got it they take knock offs and rebuild them I have their companies t28 in my car now it works great and have had no problems so it can't hurt to much.

The turbo in the OP link is does not appear to be a real MHI unit.

For what its worth - !!

There is no doubt that is an Ebay turbo. You can tell just by looking at the exhaust housing and the wastegate assembly.

 

[dsmmike50t]

That sucks its an ebay turbo. If you can get a gt45 for the same price this is a big rip off.

Here's the same turbo brand new for $334.99, and it comes with the oil lines:

Well I havnt paid for it yet are you all sure its a knock off he says they rebiuld knock off turbos to work better what should I be paying not to mention it is 350 shipped is what i am paying!!!!! Any help would be great!!!!!!!11 I only have 360 to spend!

 

[JusMX141]

I'm 100,000% sure it's a knockoff.

A rebuilt knockoff? Yes, I've been known to rebuild and resell some knockoff 16G's with more durable Garrett internals....but when they sell, I normally get around $200ish. That's a far cry from $350.

You do know its a Bastard 20G not a normal 16G how much should I be paying for it the guy is on this site under the name quicksilver2021 hes selling it to me!

 

[jenkinsfan1]

quicksilver2102 is his name sorry... I feel used and cheated.. I have been saving that money for such a long time and have been looking for a turbo for like 5 months I finnally think I found "the One" and I get scammed... : (

 

[JusMX141]

Another fine example....if you think it's too good to be true, it probably is.

Too bad you don't have just a little more to spend- I have a perfect MHI Evo III 16G for sale in the classifieds.

 

[webconnect]
