Which Turbo do I have, I know this question sounds like an echo..

but from what I can tell it is a Evo II 16G.

Going with the specs + clarifications I found:

49178-01520 - Small 16G
49178-01420 - Big 16G
49178-01470 - EVO III 16G
49179-05200 - TD06 - 16G
49178-05200 - TD05H -16g (Galant)


Basically, I just want reassurance, so I don't look stupid when someone axes what Turbo I have.. ( Came Equipped, I have never pulled it off )

Seems like an EVO III 16G to me according to the #. Then again, number is not very clear so I'm assuming it says "49178-01470"
 
I bought the car about a month ago, it has turbonetics turbo, I was told t3/t4 which really doesn't mean much. Numbers on the housing state t-40743.....so what size is it? Is it a decent turbo, and what is the power output and max pressure it can generate?
 
yeah use the link Bud92gsx posted. youll find what the info your looking for there.
 
a picture would be nice. I got lucky. I went to a junkyard about 8 months ago, looking for a turbo. I came across a 99 GSX smashed in from behind. I popped the hood, and what did I see? A brand new EVO III Turbo, shiny as ever. Bought it for $50 bucks. MHI and everything. Here's where it gets even better. Apparently when I went to remove the center console that I needed out of the same car, I noticed there was another turbo in the back seat, a TDO4HL (Stealth/3000GT Turbo). You get lucky sometimes, and other times, you dont. but the main point is if it's a TD05 series, and it came from the junkyard, it's most likely a 14b
 
Hey guys I need some Help right here.

I just bought this Turbo and wondering what turbo is it.

Any help from the Pros.

Here are some pics.

Hard to tell bro, at least for me. But maybe a 50 trim? Does it have a part # somewhere on it?
 
Turbonetics T04E50 w/ Stage III turbine and a .63 a/r 5-bolt Garrett-spec T3 turbine housing.

:boring:


Could be a higher-trim compressor, but their inducer specs are separated by thousandths of an inch and my eagle eye can't pick that out from photos alone. Rough idea....some type of E-series Turboblownetics.

By the way- Stealth's never came with TD04HL turbos. That was a 13T from a JDM Galant VR4.

Thanks for the Help.

I appreciate it.

So was I kinda right by saying that turbo was a 50 trim?

...and LOL.


Yeap.

You where right Dude.

Thanks for the Help.
 
Anytime! Glad Justin popped up in here, I trust him over anybody else when it comes to Turbos. :)
