I just picked it up today for my beginnings of my turbo project. It looks like it was a factory rebuild or something. Everything looks new, no shaft play. I dunno much about turbos. This will be my first turbo project. Its an A/R 50.

Now where do I find a flange or a decently priced downpipe for this 6 bolt flange, Ive seen 4 bolt ones but never 6. The exhuast opening is 2 3/8"








edit:
its going on this car (this is a very old pic) when i pull the GSR and drop in a LS (the GSR needs a rebuild and i dont feel like rebuilding, i rather just boost a stock LS)

I was gonna say the same, looks bigg for a stock motor. Espically that 7k redline. .

yep, the turbine is huge for your application. but if you want to run it, this might fit since it's a T4 (the 4 bolts look like they'll line up)

 

okay how do u check the specs on the housing? from what i see the turbo says

a/r .50, m9 on the intake side and 8A3, M3 on the exhuast side

Only 2 bolts might line up with the T4 flange.

 

hhm unless you can find the specific 6 bolt pattern, i'd use a drillpress and make it fit

 

eh, figure out what it is, sell it (if it was that cheap, make a few dollars), and buy one that will fit your particular goals

 

loks like imma ognna have to get my money back on this unless someone wants to buy it off of me.....let me know

 

Maybe this would work...

man i would try to get ahold of ken at http://www.cheapturbo.com he mite have something like that or direct u in the right direction, good luck

 

Thats a full t04b isnt it? That thing is gonna be a lag monster and not have a great topend. The exhaust side is just huge. Be nice on say a genII (fc) rx7.
