Default Identify This Turbo... HELP FAST

What do you guys think this turbo is? I'm looking to buy this. I can't seem to find much info from going off the pics. The turbine housing has 20357 and 20358 written on it. That makes it either a 0.48 a/r turbine or a 0.63 (most likely a 0.63 if it was ran on an MR2). And the compressor side has a 4" inlet A/R 0.70 housing but I'm sure it's a T04E sized turbo... No idea on trim. The seller pulled this setup off a car. He's a credible seller. Just doesn't know what this turbo is. Help out if you can. THANKS!

...this will be for my MR2.

I'm guessing it's a garrett

Doesn't it say A/R .70 right on the front?

Pull the housings off and measure the wheels. It looks like its a turbo in need of rebuilding thats for sure.

Definitely needs its journal bearings and rear ring seal replaced. Reputable seller he may be, but the turbo needs repair. (please don't ask how much to do a repair based upon pictures, as it must be sent in to a reputable shop to be inspected.

Well it's definitely cheap for a reason. $200 for the entire turbo kit w/ downpipe, wastegate, air filter, minus the oil lines.

But I already told him that I'm taking a pass on this. Looks to be more work than it's worth. Plus, I don't even know the specs of the damn thing...

Thanks.
