Boring,
Oregon
last night i figured i would pull my old t04e 57 trim turbo off the shelf and noticed that the compressor wheel fins were all broken and chipped, something i didn't realize when i pulled it. I also noticed the knock off type s bov i used to run was missing the bottom gasket so ill bet it found its way to the wheel and caused the damage... anyhow to my question, i do realize this is an old turbo but i figure why not get a new wheel and have it as a backup turbo. Im kind of curious what options i have, i found some compressor wheels with the same size specs (75mm ex/56.6mm in/37.5mm height/ 6.33mm bore) as the 57 wheel but say they are for different turbos, do many turbos really use the same exact wheel? the one in the link says its for a gerrett but is the same size..is that going to work?
