how can i be sure to which turbo i have???

[charleslong]

I just want to make sure that i have a stock turbo, since the gnttype forum say that the ta49 has the same housing as a stock turbo. How would i be able to tell what i have?
these are some numbers on it
M10
NR-60

thanks

it shows on gnt-type that there is a different fin count between the stock turbo and the TA-49...

can you go outside, and check to look at the numbers that are on your turbo?
see if they match up with mine.

its the WHEELS that make the difference, the TA-49 uses the stock compressor housing- ive got a few stock compressor housings sitting on the shelf,and both have M10 a/r.60
on them-

i did post in the turbo section because im looking to bolt on a TA-49 wheel and see if i need to cut the compressor housing to make it fit-

i dont think the turbo needs rebuilt, just want to add the wheel
