That's a pretty neat old school setup. You'll have to pull the compressor cover and measure the wheel to get an idea of what it is.

I rebuild engine 6 bolt for mine 95 gsx in this moment,if is good stuff ,i can rebuild this ,togheter with this setup i have magnus intake manifold ,750cc inj, eagle rod ,arias pistons,1g or 2g ported head ( i see later),ecm link,fmic,etc etc.
My goal is 450/500 whp.

i have found some info.
external wastgate is turbonetics racegate 42mm .
is possible that the turbine housing is a bullseye stainless steel turbine housing?

 

[bastarddsm]

That's what it looks like. I'd guess it's a t04E 50trim, or a to4B V trim on either a t31 or Ptrim turbine. there are a ton of other possibilities as well.

my friend told me that this is AGP rs60 ,modified hot side(reducer diameter) and ceramic bearing on the cold side.
play side by side is not good,so i have send the turbo to machine shop for rebuild.
so them tell me which parts i have.
O2 Housing is hand made and very ugly. i need of new one.

Most AGP turbos are Turbonetics-based. Some of the older units did indeed use Garrett parts, but I've never seen an AGP turbo come with a Bullseye turbine housing. Doesn't mean it's not possible- these companies all shared parts a good bit back in the day. This definitely predates any of the stainless Bullseye housings that were made, so 2007 or older for sure.

The red-anodized seal plate on your example may indicate a Turbonetics CHRA was used....it's tough to tell. Garrett never offered anodized seal plates on T04E turbos, however.

Without wheel specs it's anyone's guess. 7-blade compressor could be a T04S 60-1 wheel, but it honestly doesn't look big enough just from the photos. Hopefully it's on a T31/TA34 turbine at the very least- could potentially be a pretty decent setup, but that giant wastegate is pretty ancient and should be replaced with something more modern and a little more-compact.

Thanks a lot for your information.
I appreciate that.
I let you know wheel spec soon.
you have right,this wastgate it's real giant, replace this in the future!!

The more I look at it, the more I think it's an older Turbonetics CHRA....mainly because Garrett never used 12-point compressor locknuts on T04B/T04E/T04S turbos, and I can see two nice chunks taken out of the compressor locknut which shows it's been balanced on a VSR....and VSR balancing was never required or utilized by Garrett on T04B/E/S units.

Rebuild should be pretty simple- any 360* thrust T04E parts kit should work as it appears the turbo has a 1/4" shaft from the photos. Make sure you mark the alignment of the compressor wheel/locknut/shaft prior to disassembly since it's clearly a VSR-balanced turbo.

I hope that machine shop ,know this
i can't rebuild this in my garage.

Ps: my friend buy this in 2005
