What Turbo is this? [Merged] Turbo ID Identification

I'll only be running low boost until I get the new injectors. Probably 18 psi or so tell the new injectors come in. I know I can't max the turbo out with them but I can get my feet wet.

from what i read i would think its an older one since fp will not verify the new version uses any mitsu parts and that one has the diamonds
 
Ya v3 lite and I'm getting an lc1 next check as well as the new injectors. It's got a tune by English racing and will be getting re tuned by them once I get everything installed. Fp2 cams are a month out then its tuning time.

ok well ive took almost 2 hours and read this entire thread i cant figure out what kind of turbo this is that i took off my 420a that the previos owner blew the engine with it is a 16g im pretty shure. It says 49178-57700 stamped on it in big bold numbers. but it also has the same numbers in small stamp with 49178-04610 and its a double fin big then low on the turbine with DUCM stamped on the hotside with a mitsubishi symbol and thats it im just stumped i was wondering if it could be a hahn 16g maybe or is it just a knockoff plus theres a little shaft play up and down but u cant pull it in or out its solid that way but turns freely with no problem

ok i just couldnt really find any mtaching number ill post some pics tommorow so u guys can get a better look at it i also saw some being mentioned but none with the numbers so thanks for the reply and anyone else that can help let me know what u think it is appreciated and could i rebuild this or this kind of shaft play normal
 
When i bought my laser the guy i bought it from told me the car had a 16g and had just been rebuilt . But then last night i was putting a forced performance intake pipe on my turbo and i was looking at the fins and there was like 10 or more , and some one told me all 16g have 6 fins . so my question is do they make 16g with 14b parts or did i get screwed?

Im not sure how everyone is saying this is a 14b or a 16g. Unless we have serial numbers or a picture of the compressor we cannot know what turbo this is. So take of the intake pipe and snap a picture.

My thoughts exactly. We cannot be sure since we have not seen a picture of the fins. The 14b and 16g have the same size compressor housing and only differ with the inducer wheel. We need either the serial number or a picture of the wheel to know whether it is a 14b or 16g...he may not have lied just yet
