What Turbo is this? [Merged] Turbo ID Identification

[toofast82]

Probably maxed out the compressor's efficiency on the compressor test
I actually happen to have my 13g from my 91talon sitting in the garage. Here's the #s
49177-01900 tdo4. Also it has 100k+ with no shaft play at all(mhi quality)
Take the compressor cover off and measure the inducer/exducer of the compressor wheel to be sure.
It may be a later year(92-94) 13g? It may be a 15g judging that it says tdo4h on the cover? This page has compressor maps for the two
Stealth 316 - Turbocharger Compressor Flow Maps
15g still appears to flow less than the 14b

Definitely has the 5cm2 turbine housing and the TD04(H/HL) turbine. Based on the turbine housing and wheel sizes alone, this turbo would struggle to outflow a T25 even if it had a compressor wheel capable of doing so.

Sell it on eBay- you'll make some Honda guy's day. I would list it as a 13G based on what we know so far, but it's definitely not from a DSM judging by the way the coolant lines are routed and the design of the j-pipe.

Yea, the 15g has a 31lb/min compressor, the 14b has a 34lb/min compressor. And the turbine wheel/housing is definately very small.

well thanks guys 4 all the help what do you think i should sell this turbo for 100 150 200 it has no shaft play at all and is in good working order i can put that money i get to get a 16g i just got my new dsm about a month ago its a 1997 gst spider i had a 1995 talon 420a auto b4 getting the gst 5 speed and all i can say is it has to be the best car ive ever driven

I was strumming through ebay and was looking to find a Holset under the search Volvo turbo(for the semi truck) and there was a bunch of tdo4hl 15gs from the volvo. Look at those and see if the exhaust housing matches and gues thats what you got. Check the prices as well

 

[RonRonTSI]

For a second I read your topic as saying "Can anyone tell me what a turbo is?"

I was about to come in and start laughing, . From what I see, it's a Garrett M24.

 

[RonRonTSI]

oh haha my bad. Im sorry oooooooooo

 

[Falcon55]

^You eyes probably tricked you, making you read what I first thought I read as well, correct? ! Then you edited your post, haha.

So far from what I see in the pic, I can say it has a TO4E Compressor housing and it can be a late 1986-1987 TE61 turbo from Nissan I believe.

Check this link out, did it help you out?

Turbocharger Guide

 

[RonRonTSI]

I didnt even mess up on the thread topic to begin with haha. but anyways it has a 4 bolt exhaust housing pattern.

Oh shit, haha. Don't mind that comment I stated above... The person I was refering to (I thought you were another user) was actually you all along, I thought it was someone else who posted in this thread but it was always just you all along, just me and u in this thread, . My bad. Get what I mean?

You checked out the link I posted above, right? That looks like your turbo? I believe it does...

 

[RonRonTSI]

yea the compressor does look the same. But yea Its not mine its my buddy'S HAHA

 

[AceGSX]

Lol...now that was funny.

 

[toofast82]

It appears to be a t4 compressor housing and you said it has 4bolt outlet which is most likely a t3 turbine. Youll need to take the cover off and measure the inducer/exducer of the blades. There are a number of compressor wheel options that could be in there(50/60trim,60-1,etc)

14b or 16g?

 

[Dsmj89]

I would have to say 16g as i deffinately know that the 14b wheel has a different looking wheel/blade style.

 

[fwdmaster]

It's a 16g

 

[JEFFREYCASTGSX]

Show us other pics of it, like exhaust side.

 

[Redfwdsm]

ok i'll post those in the next 3 mins check back in 5 mins

 

[DSM_ThuNDeR]

16g(not sure which one though).... it has a big fin followed by a smaller fin

14B's has the fins the same size

Who the hell knows....something custom, obviously.

That's either a Big 16G or 18G compressor wheel- post measurements if you want the real answer.

 

[JEFFREYCASTGSX]

Is it even water cooled?

 

[JusMX141]

No, but some MHI center housings aren't.

Many of the center housings that were originally on diesel applications aren't water cooled because diesels don't operate as hot as a gasoline engine. The FP Red that I have uses the same center housing as this turbo, as do all of the Greddy turbos that I've seen....mostly because whoever's buying one of these custom turbos probably knows what they're doing and isn't retarded enough to shut their car down hot. Well, some of them anyway....anybody who spends $2000 for an 18G just because it has Greddy on it is retarded in my opinion.

There are alot of people who don't hook up water lines even on turbos that have the provision for them, and nothing will happen as long as you allow it to cool down properly before turning the engine off.

Just a question... why in the hell do you have that in your bedroom?
