Default 14b turbo differences

i need to know the differences in these 2 turbos, i know the are both tdo5h and from a 1stgen eclipse, with same housing and all but then compressor side fins are different,

does it have any thing to do with spool and etc, which 1 is better


same housing, diff fins


diff numbers


hass a bigger inlet with beveled edge, dual fin design


smaller inlet with straight edge, single fin design


exhuast side, middle cartridge is a little different

can anyone tell me some good information on these, thanks

The one on the right with the two different heights of compressor fins is not a 14b. It is some 16g variant, either a "big" or small 16g. it did not come on an Eclipse.

are yall guys sure its a 16g, because i pulled it off a eclipse, im pretty sure it was an eclipse, it was at the junk yard, but maybe the previous owner upgraded the turbo, does anyone know when the 16g hits full boost at 10psi, bkuz mine hits at 4500ish bkuz of the chipped fins, can anyone verify this for me, or show me some other 16g turbo pictures, thanks

the 16g is a stright replacement for the 14b so most def. the previous owner upgraded. Go with the 16g as the other guys said, it's a much better flowing turbo!
