Decoding turbo model numbers
Take for example:
GRAND NATIONAL (1986 - 87) 3.8L V6 TB0348
(1986 - 87) 3.8L V6 P PERF. UPGRADE TB0348
So I get TB03 = T3. What is the 48? Compressor trim? Than what would the upgrade be? Are the model numbers strictly for the housing?

i'm pretty sure if the 48 is related to turbo specs (a/r or trim) it would be the a/r of the turbine. like say a T3 with a .48 a/r turbine housing liek the one i had on my car
