To be honest, I think that is a 14b serial number. Only reason I think that is because I came accross that number yesterday while searching for another number and wrote it down. I cold be wrong but that is what I seen on the net somewhere.
 
Here is a list of typical serial numbers. I don't see yours. Are you sure you have the number right?

14B
49178-01010
49178-01030
49178-01400
49178-01410

Small 16G
49178-01520
49178-05200

Big 16G
49178-01420

Evo I Big 16G

The number is on the turbine housing of the 14b but looks like this: 78 11020
Not sure where the 16g comes in to play with this number though.
 
Post a photo of the wheel and compressor cover and/or wheel inducer/exducer diameters.
 
Double check your numbers as stated above. I can only find 78 11020 on the 14b turbine housing. It looks as if the turbine and compressor housing have different numbers than each other. The compressor housing has the serial number 49178-**** needed to identify the turbo. The turbine only has 78-***** Pictures would help out alot too.
 
I am looking to buy a 16g serial number 49178-11020. Question is which 16 g is it exactly. I couldn't find it anywhere on the site or online.
That is the part number for a 6cm turbine housing from a 14B only, not a complete turbo of any kind.
 
Compressor wheel looks 16g..What you need to find out if in your last picture there, the numbers on the right,Specifically the 2 numbers you can't see there..

If you can get those numbers, your golden.Check this thread, and you will have your answer.
 
^ Did you say big with 6cm turbine housing. Are you as :confused: as I am.

The turbine housing doesn't change what compressor wheel the turbo has. It's a Big 16G.


What would you value it at with 4k miles on a rebuild?
Mileage doesn't mean shit. It could have been beat to death for 4K miles, or well-cared for and have 100K on it and it will perform the same.

Used 16G with an undersized turbine housing....$200. Max.
 
You know I know that.But how many people put a 6cm on a big or E3.

I have a 7 on a 14b.. The logic is probbaly to help with creep, but a 6 is just asking to choke.

As long as it's functional,But it's just strange.
 
Such a turbo would probably work awesome with an auto trans under 18psi or so, where the turbo would come to life really quickly and the majority of the airflow would be wastegated....but above 18psi you're much better-off with the 7cm housing this turbo should have on it.
 
I have just recently bought a Garrett T-25 turbo system complete with inter-cooler,piping, and fuel system <2 fuel injectors and fuel pressure regulator, etc.> I bought it from Turbo Specialties, I would love to have a tubular header that would bolt up to it, I have an internal waste-gate, I found one at Summit Racing but it is for a stock turbo eclipse like mine, the mounting bracket on the bottom of the header < the mounting bracket> is turned sideways from the way i need it to be, Would it be better for me to try to find a different tubular header or should i just keep the one i got from summit and just cut and re-weld the mounting bracket to make it work for my turbo system? I would also be wanting to know if anyone knows where i can get a wiring diagram for the fuel system for my turbo? And also where i might could find a wiring diagram for the ECU, i need to find the RPM wire? In desperate need of the wiring diagram for the ECU........
Help.......

^This is why your turbo guy.Would work well in an auto under 18psi you say. :hmm:
Right, but it's still going to be laggier than a 14B or Small 16G by a bit....so the small gain in airflow may be negated by the gain in lag. Who knows? I don't have an auto myself, but some auto guys who have run a Small 16G in a 6cm housing at near-stock boost levels say it responds really quickly.
 
My small responded pretty quickly in a 6cm housing..I never had it in a 7, but my knockoff was in a 7.

But now the comp wheel has a small portion of the wheel missing.So It will have to be fixed eventually.

Also my girl liked the small on WG pressure..I even let her take it to work one day, that's how she knows.
