Default what kind of turbo is this

i got this whole setup when i purchased my hatch.he said it was a t4 turbo but didnt tell me the brand. the wastgate, manifold and dump tube are all turbonetics parts. to me this looks like a turbonetics style turbo also. i dont know the a/r because theres a hole with looks like a vaccume style nipple drilled into the marking. im probibly going to take it aport and measure the compresser wheels inducer and exducer tonight o find the a/r but if anyone could give me a hint on what kind this is it would be awsome.

Looks to be a Turbonetics 60-1 w/ larger compressor housing. because there is no picture of the turbine side directly, I don't know which exhaust whee it is using. Either way, it looks as though the compressor wheel injgested some FOD, as the inlet blade tips look a bit "rough". I'd be weary of it, and investigate further.

ok i just got down taking it apart and its defently a 56 trim turbo. there is less than a millimeter of shaft play, i dont know if there are certine specs that you are supost to stay in but there is vary little. and there is one blade that has a little indent in it but not bad at all. so im planing on ordering my oil lines and then she will be on my b20vtec hatch.
