Its a 16g turbo. The serial numbers on it, that could be punched into google or DSMtuners search function, for a result will tell you its a small 16g.

Googling the clear picture of the product number on the turbo would have taken you to this..... and 17, 000 other threads with the answer

The reason for that is most DSM style TD05 turbos all used similar compressor housings that only changed two digits of the serial number to dictate what turbo it was, 14b, small 16g, big 16g, evo16g and evo316g

I didn't know that. Now that would make sense.

MHI Small 16G. Turbine housing is spiderwebbed around the wastegate hole, so plan on replacing that in the near future.
