I think I read somewhere that on the inside of the turbo outlet whatever size turbo it is, it will be stamped.

This one looks like it reads ".60"

This isn't a TE-60 is it?

looks like a Garrett T04E compressor cover, but what does the turbine housing look like? does it say precision or garrett? What A/R is it? What size is the compressor inlet? What size is the turbine wheel?
 
Where do I need to look? I don't know, how do I find this out? 3 inch Not sure

Unfortunately, to find out this info your gonna have to remove the turbo, or at the very least the turbo shield. The turbine A/R is stamped right on the housing near the three bolt flange. On a stock GN turbo it will read .63 A/R. To get any measurements you need a dial caliper. There should be some 14mm bolts on the compressor cover and the turbine housing. After you remove the housings, you measure the smallest part of the wheel and the largest. For instance, a stock GN turbine wheel would measure around 1.90 inches (48.26mm) at the smallest point, this is known as the exducer on the turbine. The largest section of the wheel should be 2.319 inches, this is known as the turbine inducer. A good place to gain knowledge about this stuff is here.

to get pics. Hope this helps
 
Need a better picture of the compressor wheel. The .60 will be on any TE housing, .60 AR. The wheel looks like a TE44. Can't tell by the angle. Does it have 6 or 7 blades? Get the DP off and get a picture of the turbine wheel.
 
Hopefully these pics will help
