i just got this turbo and im not exactly sure what it is. on the intake side of the turbo the tag reads type: t3v band part #:to4e serial #: a07030004 the compressor housing has "j84a" stamped in it and on the back side of the compressor is stapmed from top to bottom 5327-5794, 5617, k27.015, HJ. there is absolutely no other stamps or markings on the turbo. im just trying to find out what kind of turbo this it. if you have any info please let me know. ive searched but found almost nothing that helps me out.

 

Pictures would help a lot

 

i will try to go take some in a lil bit. my digi cam is broke so i have to use my cell so i dunno how good the pics will come out but ill try!

 

well i cant seem to upload pics so anyone who wants pics just pm me your email address or let me know how to upload pics. thanks

 

BUMP anyone have any ideas???

 

well i googled the 5327-5794 and what came up from other forums was that it was a Garrett T61. Other posters said it was a fake Garrett.

yea i googled the numbers as well. all i could come up with is a ebay super t70 but the compressor housing on my turbo looks slightly different and the ebay one is a T3 and mine is a T3\T4. the guy i got it from said it was a garrett t70 but im possitive its a "fake" because there are no markings on the turbo other then what i listed in my first post. any other info would be great! i have pics of the turbo but cant firgure out how to load them on here so if any one knows how let me know. or just pm me your email and ill send them.
