help me identify the model number of my turbo i just picked up.....
the turbine says - GARRETT .50AR
the compressor says - .63AR
i`m not sure on the trim i haven`t been able to measure it seeing that i`ve only had it for a few hours... i bought it in a turbo kit i picked up. it seems to have some oil in the compressor blades *normally i always see turbos bone dry*
the previous owner bought it from someone else and has, little to no, knowledge of turbos. i`m still learning... i`ve looked and unless this is a custom setup or knock off i`ve been unable to identify it.... if you can help, please do.. i`m going to run it and see if it blows smoke... if not, good.. i have no worries.. if it does.. then i need this information in order to know if its worth spending the money to get it rebuilt, buy a new turbo, or to rebuild it myself..
so please post, or pm me with any information that may help with the oil problem and/or identification....
