Can't identify mhi turbo

[jakk220]

So I'm having trouble identifying the part number on an mhi turbo I have on a parts car. The number appears to be 49178-05210. Is it maybe an 18g? Thanks for any info.

I internet searched and came up with this: Mitsubishi TD05H-06*18G-8.0 Turbos.

I found similar info. Appears to be part of a turbo kit that Trust (Greddy) marketed to civic/integra owners. 18G compressor wheel in a TD06 compressor housing, TD05H turbine wheel in an 8cm housing.

Should be only a tad laggier than a Evo 3 16G with a very slight bump in ability to hold boost in higher rpm.

Yep. My thoughts too.

Hmm well that's weird. Because it says TD05H on the compressor housing. Not TD06H. I'll probably just have to take it apart and measure everything. Definitely looks genuine MHI though.

I ran one of those back in the day. Probably the highest flowing mhi td05h turbo that stays together, kinda. I would smoke td05h 20g’s pretty quick with them cranked up. I didn’t blow the 18g in a few thousand hard miles.

Huh no kidding. Well it's going on my 1g that being built with a road course / auto cross focus. Still will be a street car though too. Sounds like a perfect fit.
