im not sure what it is. its a garret m24 .50 cold side and i believe its a .63 or .83 hot side. No nameplate only other numbers i found are on cold side housing 994910 and 9524410m. any help is appreciated

 

Measure those wheels. Find out where the turbo came from..

 

So measure the inlet and outlet wheel correct? I need to remove the housings for that I would assume? I have no source to ask where the unit came from

 

1)Correct 2) correct again. 3) nope.

 

Post up some pics of the exhaust side. It should also say a AR some where on it. Usually on the side closer to the center housing under the mounting flange.

Some of the things I am coming up for it say its from a diesel just searching Garrett M24 .50AR

EDIT: By your oil line feed under the front flange bolts you can see some writing. Thats where its goin to say the AR of the turbine side.

 

jdm it says .63 or .83 hard to tell. i measured the inlet wheel and it is 3" i did not take exhaust housing off as i didn't wanna mess nothing up. on the inlet wheel there was an a stamped on it. if that makes a difference. thank you for all your help

 

Is it a 3bolt exhaust flange?

 

4 bolt exhaust mani. but if your asking about exhaust side of turbo it is a v band that was fabbed onto housing so not sure of o.g setup

 

Post up some pics of the exhaust side.

 

here they are

 

now that i look at it it appears to be either 4 bolt or 5 bolt on exhaust

 

Looks to me like the same garrett t3/t4, we used on my little brothers car.

Its not the same one. This one is a 5 bolt ford style with a .83 turbine. the 5 bolt in the one you used is a .48ar.

everything I am finding is leading towards it being a stock Diesel turbo.

 

That isn't the same one we used, my brothers is the 57trim compressor, and ford 5-bolt style .63a/r housing,

Seeing as how you can get the same turbo with a variety of housings, I still think it could be it.

 

so do you believe its ball bearing? should i get good power from this?

 

I don't think so. Does it have coolant ports on the chra?

My guess is its journal bearing. We made 413@22psi on a stock b16 with the one I posted above.

 

not sure what chra is. compressor housing? theres a brass nipple fitting on the cold side

 

Unless you pull the housings off and measure the wheels, or get the numbers off the Id tag. We can't help you

 

once again i appreciate all the help and input. ive been in the honda scene for about 8 yrs and this is my first turbo venture so im doing research to learn all that i can before this install.

 

ok i will take off turbine side. is there anything i should be careful about?

 

Take off the compressor housing and measure the wheel. Its not gonna hurt anything

 

Since ^this turbo is used, you might have to man handle the turbine housing to get it off.

 

Ok so I got it apart safely. Exhaust wheel is 2.5 and intake is 3 inch

 

Here's what you need to tell us

LOOK AT THIS DIAGRAM CAREFULLY.




To calculate trim.

 

after going to the garrett website and using the trim calculation and using 50 ar inducer and 63 ar exducer i got 63 trim. does this seem correct?
