My friend Stanley just came back from Panama and upon his arrival he distributed "gifts" to the whole group. My gift, delivered 10:30 last evening WHILE I was asleep (they did wake me up) was this little nifty thing -


.As you can tell, this is Garrett M24 A/R .53 on the cold side and on the hot side....um....well, there is no markings indicating A/R on it. The exhaust flange (and for that matter all the flanges) has some crazy three bolt dealy and I assume there was once an internal wastegate attached -

I have found the Oil (Feed/Return?) line but, there is only one entrance/exit point visibile -

Is that normal?

The key concerns are -
1) What car/motor did this originate from?
2) Is there a compressor map for it (it being the .53/? model)
3) What is up with the oil lines?
4) Is there another name for this turbo I.E. GTxx, Tx/x?
5) This should be adequately sized for a D16A6?

the 3 bolt comp inlet is most commonly on 80's dodge vehicles. but they are usually 42/48 turbos.


nice key, i have the same one

the turbine is prob a .36 or .48
i dont think it would be any bigger than that.


teh comp os fine for an A6, but if it is a .36 turbine you might start choking in the higher rpms

I took some measurements, the Inlet is flared but at the opening is 1-13/16" and the exhaust is 1-3/4".

I was finally able to dig up some more information on this turbo and it turns out that it came off a 1999 Hyundai Tiburon, apparently overseas it came as a Inline-four turbo motor. The intake housing is factory but the exhaust housing is not. There was an internal wastegate, but the actuator on the outside was removed.

NEW QUESTIONS
1) Still on the oil feed issue, what is up with that?
2) What type of exhaust housing can I use? T3, T25/28...?

beepy

Can you get a pic of the inlet flange?

The cartridge is a weird T25. Don't know what is up with the oil feed. Probably the turbo came from a Hyundai but some sort of IHI turbine housing was bolted on it to fit it on another car. Definately odd.

ok. i can tell you what id up with the oil feed/drain.
the turbo was most likley mounted on a pedistal, the oil feed is the small hole on the left, the drain is obviously the big hole. whatever it came off of was small. it looks to be the equivalent to a garrett gt12 or gt15. gt12 only supports about 120hp. IMO its way too small for anything with 4-cylinders. I'll take it from ya if you dont want it, i've always wanted a turbo scooter

dr_latino999

Ok, well if you think it is that small, this is what I know at this point -

M24 Turbos were used extensively with Nissan (and apparently Hyundai). Nissan used them with their S14 and S15 in .60 and .80 A/R and it looks like Hyundai used it with their Tiburon overseas. Since it came off a turboed Tiburon you would expect it to push more then 120hp, correct? What is the standard size of a T25/28 Inlet/Exhaust opening?
