What Turbo is this? [Merged] Turbo ID Identification

Turbine wheel looks to be about 67mm. I cant really measure the compressor wheel very well with the cover on but it looks about 54mm.
 
Bullseye Power T04B V-Trim with a stainless BEP .55 a/r turbine housing. Roughly 18G airflow with ridiculous lag and compressor surge thanks to Bullseye using a turbine wheel that is capable nearly double the airflow of the compressor.

There are way better turbo choices for far less money out there....namely the Evo III 16G.

this guy sleeps with turbos.....

Sounds like a turbo intended to be used on a larger engine.

That I do....


...plus this reminds me of a confused member's thread from just a few weeks ago:

http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/390783-going-fp-green-turbo.html

Sounds like a turbo intended to be used on something larger engine.
Correct- larger displacement engines would benefit from the reduced backpressure, but someone with a stroker is not going to settle for 18G airflow on their build.

It's just a poor wheel combo for a 4-cylinder. These were originally intended for use on diesel tractors which favored low boost and lots of turbine flow because of the high compression. Our cars are the opposite of that. LOL
 
Hey my friend just got this turbo for free and he is wondering what it is. I thought maybe you guys could help me. He wants to know what it is and if its even possible to try to adapt it to a dsm or worth it.

Thanks in advanced.

Looks like some type of T04B Garrett, but without pics and / or measurements of the compressor and turbine wheels, it's anybody's guess.

As shown above, there is a merged thread for this type of question.

I looked at the thread but it was impossible to find out specifically what turbo I have.

I don't have the turbo on me, so I can't measure it at the moment. Any help is appreciated :D
 
The merged thread is not in place to help you, but you're encouraged to ask your question there instead of creating a new thread to save us from having 800 "What turbo is this" threads floating around out in cyberspace.
 
its hard to say what the turbo is by a some pictures. My guess would be a 50 trim garrett turbo.

You can tell the trim of the compressor without a pic or measurements of the wheel itself? You're good.

I can tell you this much- Garrett only put T04E50 compressor wheels behind T04E compressor covers, and his turbo definitely does not have a T04E cover. ;)
 
buying a turbo from a guy on this forum, says its a fp green but want absolute certainty thats what it is. Ive heard of people getting ripped off on here. Not that i dont trust the guy just want to verify.
