The wheels have to be measured to determine size.

This link is helpful as well...http://www.forcedinductions.com/help.htm

Thanks , I measured the wheels. And I got a 60 trim. I'm assuming its a t3/t4.

Straight t4...

T04B compressor wheel and housing, we need the physical wheel measurements as t04b wheels aren't ,measured in trim

On center t4 turbine housing, will make it hard to fit any premade turbo manifold as the turbo will more than likely hit the block everywhere. And what looks to be a standard p trim turbine wheel


What's this going on and what are your power goals/purpose for the car? Because this turbo will be very very very laggy and won't be a great power producer. I can tell from the picture the turbo has a very small compressor inducer.

Part number on the tag comes back as T04B90, originally used on deutz diesel tractor/generator motors.

Turbine side makes it basically too big for any reasonable turbo setup. Very laggy and probably has a compressor limit of 400hp

That's why I need the compressor wheel measurements, o locate the proper wheel designation and locate the correct compressor map

That's smaller than the T3/T04E "60 trim" you're thinking. MUCH smaller. those are about 43lbs/min on one of the older splitter blade models with no curvature on the backwall. Small compressor, LARGE On-center turbine housing with almost a P-trim size. That's definitely for a diesel tractor or farm combine.

so what kind of spool time/horespower are we talking? Im thinking no way this is going on a ls aiming for 300hp.

maybe 200hp. "Spool" is irrelevant for this horrible application. Horribly sized and even worse to integrate.

The turbine measured 60mm and 75mm. If that changes anything.

Huge turbine wheel and housing plus the small compressor side, won't happen. Compressor might do 250-275 at its limit but with that turbine side it will be around 7000rpm

For 300 get a 50 trim t04e or a gt28rs or gt2871

Ok sorry to bring this back. But I now have a complete turbo kit. What are my options here?

Stock LS.

Goal is 300 hp.

I have the turbo which I bought for 300.

Is there any way I can rebuild the hotside and get a new housing and make my goal? Is there an alternative route to take? If it matters my kit includes a tial 38mm mv-s wastegate, RC 650cc, Hks bov (non-replica), all other non moving parts.

So if confused my question is, is there a cost effective way to make this turbo meet my goals with a decent spool time?

Ok so what turbo do I go with? I've been looking at the Borg Warner s246. Just don't know if its twin scroll or just divided flange. Any body have any ideas?

3 turbochargers were suggested to you in a previous post. Do some more research on them and pick one that will compliment what you want out of your setup.
