Umm... It's a T3/T4...?

Looks like possibly a Turbonetics T04B compressor housing (but that doesn't mean it necessarily has a T04B compressor wheel).

Looks just like it... thanks alot for answering my n00b question.. Ill pull the housing off this weekend and take some measurements... any specific measurements i can take on the compressor wheel to to help determine the specs?

BTW... it is pretty damn big, but the angle of the pic makes it look bigger than it really is..

Measure the inducer diam. of the wheel (at the top near the inlet) in mm. That will tell you the trim if it is a T04E. 50mm = .50-trim, etc.

If the exducer (bottom) diam. is 2.95" or 3.0" (50-trim has 3.00" bottom diam), then you can safely assume it's a T04E. the "Super" T04Es all have 3.2" major diameters.

It's an older style T3/T04E with 3" inlet. The picture is not at the right angle to be able to tell what trim it is.

measure the major and minor diameters of the wheel. basically the small and large. give those to us and we will find the trim for the housing measure the diameter of the outlet and the radius of the housing.

There should be numbers on the exhaust turbine housing near the 4 bolt flange. One is on the compressor side and the other is on the turbine side, get those numbers and post them.

How can you tell that it's a stage III wheel by not even looking at the turbine side?

Count the blade on the compressor side, if it's a T4 compressor side,

T4E will have 6 blades
T4B will have 7 blades

then like MarkC said, measure the diameter of the small and large wheel.

Look at the Turbine housing inlet, it should say .63 or .48 stamped on the inner side of the housing, then measure the diameter of the turbine wheel, we'll tell you what Stages and AR of the turbine side.

i think in all honesty, you should be asking yourself, "why is my intercooler red?"
