Default turbo gurus, help needed.

Some guy was selling a turbonetics turbo and claimed it was a t3/t4 trim. But judging by this picture it doesn't seem like it's a t3/t4. Heck, I don't even know if its a turbonetics turbo or not. So you turbo gurus please shine the light on this one for me.

definately not turbonetics turbo. They always forget the name of the company all the time so they engrave it into the turbo really big so they don't forget. At least the newer ones do, the older ones just use to have that t symbol on it.

Looks like one of the old volvo .42/.48 T3 60s that are used. Looks to be blown as well. Only provide about mid 200whp with that, at over 1.4PR. you can rebuild it if you like, but from its condition, looks to be more trouble to repair than its worth.
