Generally it will have that T logo on the housings or say Turbonetics on the compressor from my expirence. I'm sure there are other ways of identifying that other people can add.

I've seen some turbos on ebay with turbonetics or garrett turbine housings, but with generic crappy compressors, so be careful. From what I've seen, Turbonetics turbos usually have their logo on the compressor side as well.
