ok so I just bought a garrett turbo off ebay (not paid yet) and I need help to see if its truly what the guy said it was, he says its a garrett t3/t4, 57 trim .63 a/r. I thought this size only came in the t3/t04e turbo and maybe the t3/t04b turbo. it has a 4 bolt exhaust side, what should I ask him so we can figure it out? thanks

 

post up the ebay auction link so we can have a look at the pictures/description.

the garret t3/t04e 57-trim .63 a/r is avalible with a 4 bolt discharge........

here is the link, I dont know if I did that right so if it doesnt work someone should tell me how to do it right

 

Looks like any other T3/T04E to me.....**** $450 is a good deal.

I think you are confused about what a t3/t4 is.... a t3/to4e is a t3/t4 and a t3/to4b is still a t3/t4.

 

yea yea I know that all of them are t3/t4s but Im wondering if someone can tell me exactly what it is, doesnt the t3/t04e have 6 compressor blades and the t3/t04b have 5? I hear something like that before, idk

 

TO4B and TO4E designate compressor covers. TO4B's have a 2.625" inlet and a 1.75" outlet, TO4E's have a 3" inlet and 2" outlet.I think to4e's are .60 A/R, and t04b's are .50 if memory serves..Just measure your compressor inlet and that will let you know what you got.

 

not exactly true, I had a 57 trim To4e with a .50 A/R

 

Damn that is a good deal.
I paid $550 for that same exact turbo.
