Default Can you identify this Turbo?

There are Turbonetics casting marks on both the cold and hotside of the turbo, however, I'm not sure if you can swap out backing plates. From what I've found, most Turbonetic turbos have a colored billet backing plate where as this one has a backing plate with spokes. The numbers on the cold side read: 30432 E-60, I was told it was probably a T04E 60 trim, but I'm unsure if it's a genuine Turbonetics turbo.

You must remove housings and measure the wheels. You will need to put in a bit of effort in order for us to be of any assistance. Let us know if you need to know how to measure the wheels .

Chinese knock off... E 60 ar cold housing.. Looks like a 5 bolt ex housing... more pics to figure out AR. And yes youll need to measure to figure out trim

I had a VERY similar turbo I bought early on that had the T cast in it, it was a knock off... Chinese manufactrurers are scandelous like that,,, re creating EXACT castings

def not a knockoff, you can tell by the casting on the ex and comp side and the center section. its probably a legit turbonetics.

looks identical to my old .48/.60 "turbonetics". It looked completely authentic EXCEPT for the comp housing.
