Default ID This Turbo: T3/T04B or T3/T04E?






I'm thinking it's a T3/T04E based on the fact that it has six compressor wheel blades.

definitely a turbonetics turbo.

Not for sure, but they are usually b's unless you ask for the bigger one

Is that good or bad?

I want something comparable to a Precision SC50 .48 a/r turbo.

I think it is a t04e..Because all the t04b's Ive seen have 7 blades on compressor side,,And the t04e's have 6 blades..

the SC50 is the equivalent of a T3T4E 50 trim...

http://www.precisionturbo.net/...=3026

all the SC's and their trim sizes are on that site....

i'm pretty sure it's a t04e cause most t04b has a different color backing plate (t04b have a gold plate behind the compressor). Also the t04b has a different looking compressor.... here is a pic of a t04b

I know how to determine the a/r of the exhaust, by looking at the casting in the exhaust section, right? Well then how did you determine what trim it is from looking at it? Both of those trims sound good to me

Thread jacking in someones post is wrong, and especially when you are too new to post in classifieds..

this is the same way how I could tell apart t04b from t04e especially if they are from drag kits

The exhaust a/r should be stamped in the exhaust housing I think. If it has a blue backing plate and 6 compressor blades, it's a t3/t04e.

I forgot how to find the trim, I think it's on the compressor housing somewhere.

Now I'm going to take a look at the turbo and determine the exhaust a/r...if it's .48 I'll be doing backflips!
