Default Help Identifying Turbo

I bought this garrett off of this kid a while back for 500. I was told it's a GT35. It came with a five bolt housing, I think it's a turbonetics housing. I bought a four bolt Garrett for it and it won't fit, the blades scrape the inside of the housing but anyhow. Here are some pics. I measured the best I could without the proper tools and the measurements I got where 74mm compressor wheel and a 60mm hot side with a .70 A/R Cold side and a .63 A/R hot side. I've looked at all of the series Garretts and can't find anything that matches these specs. The closest was the GT30r but idk if it's ball bearing because im still new to this, not sure exactly how to tell....any help would be appreciated, thanks guys Also if u have an idea of what it is could you tell me what it's rated for power?







The housing I bought that doesnt fit .63

Look like a t3/t4 46 trim to me. I have the same turbo at my cousin's place. .

^ That is just a regular t3. Mic the compressor wheel than do the calculation. If it is what I said it is than it'll be 50.9mm inducer and 74.9mm exducer. Do the calculation and it should come to a 46 trim.

Well I just got a hold of the kid that I bought the turbo from and he told me he made 497 to the wheels on pump and stock sleeves @ 20psi. Hope this helps narrow it down to a general group of turbos
