That is not oil on it by the way.... If I called Turbonetics and gave them serial # would it help?
Thanks for your help....

Being that it looks to be attatched to a DRAG manifold i would say it is probably a t3/t04e 54 trim with a .63 stage 3 turbine. Although it may not be the original DRAG turbo because of the blue backing plate.

I don't know, I'm going to have to say closer to a T3 b/c I've got one that I'm looking at, it's Garrett, but they look pretty similar in size.

my turbo came with a blue back plate..and mine's ball bearing. So if no one else here with a standard shaft turbine has that plate on their Turbonetics turbo, then my guess is it's ballbearing. that or someone just swapped it on cause they thought it looked cool

Again, the turbine is a T3 stage 3.
And by looking at the blades on the compressor its a T04e because the T04E has 6 main blades with 12 sub-blades. while the "B" has 7 main blades and 14 sub-blades.

Yep, I just got my T3/TO4E from Ben 5 days ago and it has blue backing......non-ball bearing. Though I doubt if the blue back dictates the size.

All you have to do is take off the compressor housing and measure the wheel. Both sizes will tell you what you have. Look at the turbonetics website and you'll know for sure what you got. Its apparent from what other say that you have a stage 3 turbine.
Also you might wanna look inside the outlet of the compressor housing, it might have a stamp in there to tell you what it is.

Measure the major and minor diameters of the compressor blade if you want the correct answer but I am guesstimating that it is a T04E 54t(maybe a 57t) compressor mated to a stage 3 T3 exhaust side.
