i just got my turbo kit from a friend but have no idea what it is i been looking but it seem to have 2 different part number (#20357 & # 20358) why does it have 2?? Also wonder if this is to big for my stock b20?? Also the turbo does have a lot of shaft play but it seem rebuild able, where can i get a rebuild kit for this turbo? Or where can i take it to for them to rebuild it??

 

that "turbonetics" sticker doesn't look real to me. I have never seen one like that. Where did your "friend" get this turbo from? Those are 2 different part numbers for t3 turbos that have different ARs the part number ending in 8 is for .63 AR, and the one ending in 7 is for .48 AR

 

well its a t3t4B i can tell you that

 

looks like the over v-trim compressor wheel w/ a stage 2 exhaust wheel. It can work for about 300-320 or so, that's about it.

 

my friend bought it from another forums. He put it on his car and thought that the oil feed line only read the gauge and the whole time he been driving it the turbo had no oil.. it still seem rebuild able because none of the blade hit the housing but it have more then normal shaft play. You think i should get a new one or stay with this one?

 

If it were me, I would ebay that turbo and use whatever money I got to buy a real turbonetics or other quality brand turbo.

If the guy never ran oil through it, chances are there is a lot of damage to the shaft. Could be warped, turbine fins could be warped or made brittle by the lack of head dissipation.

Just too risky IMO. Get rid of it...

 

there's a T stamped on the comp housing for turbonetics. And I don't see why you don't use it

 

But if it was real, why would they be that redundant? There is already a "T" on the housing...

If you want to keep it, I would definitely have it rebuilt. I don't know anywhere in Kansas that does that. You could probably send it over to turbonetics. It's a T3/T4 which is the right size turbo for your motor.

 

I see a cool air intake. It's got a NOS fogger system and a T4 turbo, Dominic. I see an AIC controller. It has direct port nitrous injection. Yeah. And a stand-alone fuel management system. Not a bad way to spend $10,000.

 

if i wanted to rebuild it i buy a kit for t3/t4 right??

 

every turbonetics turbo ive ever seen, even the brand new ones have exesive shaft play in my opinion.

 

i would buy a new turbo

 

^^^ classic lol

 

LMFAO!!!!!! Thanks for the laugh

 

the turbo is fine to use, and looks plenty real.

i have seen/worked with 3 that look just like that come off prelude turbo kits.

all have been ran pretty hard, and never showed a sign of wearing out prematurely.

i don't really see where your getting the "fake" part from.

 

I see these. I don't know why they all look different. Maybe they just update their design every few years. The black looking one with the little holes around the inlet is the latest design that is on the turbonetics website.

Maybe it's just an old unit.
