Hey guys, So a few months ago I traded an old gaming computer I got for free and rebuilt to a guy on craigslist for an unused turbo.
Well when we met up he said, "hey I have another turbo, its blown but its nice" So I said sure why not, of course I'm new to turbos and trying to teach myself all I can learn about them while i get all the parts i need to boost my 92 Integra this summer.

He gave me an Emusa GT28 turbo which was brand new,

Anyways, for the life of me, I do not know how to identify this turbo. I was told its a turbonetics but not too positive. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

And i can take more pics on request if need be, Thanks for your help guys!

The exhaust turbine i can move side to side a small but noticeable amount, so i will need to rebuild it and replace the seals, so hopefully i can do that. If not, it was free.

God only knows what that thing has been through. You'll be paying almost as much to repair it as a new Garrett is available.

Here's an example of how to properly post a turbo you know nothing about so that the H-T community doesn't laugh at you any more than they will now for getting a remarkably ROUGHLY used old unit.

Once you perform what this person did by way of measurements and pictures will someone comment further. Otherwise, I think this might not get anywhere because people will feel that they have to work to figure out what you have based upon your naive mistake.

Haha Thanks Shodan, I had actually found that after I had posted this and was looking around! lol But I will see what I can do and post the proper pictures. I thought the numbers would have helped, but now i see what needs to be done lol

Like I said, its free so if it's going to cost as much as a new turbo, then i'll go that route. Again, thanks for the advice!
