when i bought it, i was told it was a brand new t3 60-1 a/r .63
it looks too small...

inlet- looks like 2.5

outlet- looks like 2







i take more pictures or list all the numbers on the turbo if it will help

 

If it isnt what ur looking for i will trade u for a SC6152E!

 

that is not a 60-1.. Not sure what it is, but I can tell you what it isn't

 

might be instrested, pm me with details on your turbo...




bump! anyone else, i wanna know what i'm working with here.

 

well it looks like it has exhaust side is a turbonetics t3 .48

 

i just found

"pat no. 3058.787" on the center section by the drain

 

Thats what I found as well... The Turbonetics logo almost looks fake.

If you look in the oil drain you could find out if its ball bearing or not but seeing if theres a pin in there.

 

what do you mean? what should i be looking for

 

I agree the Turbonetics "T" almost looks fake like the SSAC ripoffs...someone could put a legit compressor housing on an Ebay **** turbo and make it look legit. Beware...one more thing, a trade even for a legit turbo like this for an SC61 is a bad trade for the one losing the SC61...

 

Look like a t3/t04b H-trim to me.

 

its not a turbonetics turbo
its a garret turbo with a turbonetics exhaust housing
it has a garrett badge on the center section also says garrett on the intake side

anyways
it has a big s on outlet and the numbers 8709 1

maybe an s cover?

 

That's either an E or a B housing. Here's a pic to show the difference

E housing and S housing


B housing

 

Hmmm...very interesting. Never seen a 3" inlet Garrett E housing come in a .70 a/r before. And that "Turbonetics" turbine housing is a fake.

Exactly where did you get this turbo?

 

some guy on another forum... sent me some bad photos and it looked real when i bought it

and now he banned for scamming another dude

so i got ****ed and cant get a hold of him

oh its a 2.5 inlet not 3

 

its looks like a ebay turbo.

 

All I can say is try it out and see how it does. What motor is it going on, and what kinda power are you planning to make?

 

I don't understand how people are claiming this is an eBay turbo. It looks absolutely nothing like any knockoff turbo I've ever seen. It looks legit, measure the wheels and go from there. Even if it was a knockoff, that sucks you got ripped off, but its still a turbocharger. Use it.

 

^Word, look nothing near an ebay turbo. I bet it's a H-trim like I stated above but if you want to know for sure measure the damn compressor wheel.

 

lol, its my first turbo, i'm not 100% sure on how to take it apart

but i'm going to try

any special tips

 

Hey, most of the big turbos do not have the waste gate hole on the exhaust housing like the one on the picture. Big turbos use external waste gates.

 

I'm not sure why this is being labeled a fake either. In for some possible info.

 

That was standard on a lot of the old 5 bolts to fit an internal gate if needed. That is nothing special

 

So anyone have more info about this?

 

No. there won't be any further information until you remove the covers and measure the wheels. Check the FAQs as to how to do that.

 

Is the lil guy on the left the survivor? t3/t04e or whatever?
