Doesn't say garrett, so what is this?
Also is that little nut in the center suppose to be shaved off like that?

 

Need the numbers on the tag to idenify it. The picture doesn't show then clear enough.

 

looks like a garrett t3

 

It would have AIresearch or Garrett stamped into the housing if it was. Maybe a tubonetics T3.

 

Strange that it's unmarked, but it definitely is or was a Garrett/Turbonetics turbo at some point in its life.

If you can't find any markings at all, you can take off the compressor housing and measure the inducer/exducer diameters (inlet and outer diameter of the wheel) and match it to the dimensions of existing Garrett wheels.

The notching on the nut is normal; this is how they balance the rotor (including the nut)

 

Didn't the precision turbos that art sells have really nice compressor housing castings like that? I think they were five bolt t3 based as well, anyway thats my guess

 

Not a precision.

 

Precision was what I was thinking because it does have a number plate, and that's not where Garrett or turbonetics put their number plates.

 

that is not precision, any manufacturer or assembler can put the plates anywhere they want and added a plate for that reason....

 

Precision doesnt have a plate on it.

 

looks like turbonetics or maybe even an IHI to me...

 

I was told it was a brand new t3/t4. Just wondering what brand it was. Thanks.

 

Its does look like a t3/t4. Looks nice too.
