Default is this a 16g or a 14b ??

I bought a "16g" turbo off a guy. But for some reason I swear its a 14b. How can I tell that if it's a true 16g?

Can anyone help....Thanks....it does say td05 on it...

Here is what it looks like

Yup, it's a 14b.

All of the 16g's will have alternating tall and short compressor blades.

In addition, there is way too much meat on the inlet for it to be a 16g.

I am under the same thought myself. I am confused as to what you mean by "to much meat on the compressor side"?

Thanks guys....

Does this apply to the "big 16G" also?

Hopefully you at least got a 7cm exhaust housing with your 14b. Does the turbine housing say 070 or 060? That is a 14b for sure however.
