Default Pics of different turbos on the market:

I have seen enough pics of different turbos with people asking what they are, ratings, etc..... Maybe it's about time to post pics of our turbos and post the specs and sources; Maybe creating a list of Turbo specs and pics for people to reference. I would like to keep the thread down to a minimum of banter back and forth, just post up turbos with clear pics;

Post Turbo specs and A/R of both housings/wheels, inlet size, outlet size, What exhaust inlet flange it has...
Post a picture of the compressor inlet side, exhaust outlet side, a pic of the top showing through the compressor outlet, and a pic of the inlet flange.
Also post what type of oil inlet it has; I.E. 1/8NPT only, 1/8NPT + flange, flange only.


This thread could help relieve a million of the "What turbo is this" threads.

I understand your idea, but honestly that's a REALLY tall order to do, especially with the options, companies and sizes that are available. Its almost to a point where it would be a catalog system. If this is to be done, people, please responsible, and understand that NOT ALL TURBOS PERFORM THE SAME WAY ON ENGINES, and that Dynos mean only one set of parameters. If your dyno results are different, that is not the manufacturer's issue.

Glad Schister66 is on this. That kind of thread will get really ugly, really fast if not properly monitored and maintained.

Good luck with this thread.

Yeah; This is moe of somewhere for people to post pics of what they got and add it to a tall list; The hard part would be keeping repeats from poping up, and multiple reviews on identical turbos...

Schister66 sent me a message; and I will round up what turbos I do have and get some basic descriptions about them.
