GNX Turbo or not?

[8TurboT7]

I have a turbo that has been said to be from a GNX from the guy I bought my T from which is a GNX owner. I just wanna make sure before I give it away, sell it or something. Heres some of the specs and s/n# on the plaque

s/n# BGM0042
p/n# 25527600
compressor A/R .60 and .63 exhaust housings

Nope.

That is definately not a GNX turbo. You would be seeing a contamination trap on the turbine side and it would be a .82 a/r housing also.

Looks like a nice stock replacement.

Agreed.

If it has "PRECISION" cast into the turbine housing, it's not a stock turbo. Does the compressor cover have a stock-style inlet? Looks to me it may be a TA-49, but cant tell without better pics. I bought a older TE-44 that looked similar to that.

I don't see a crimp on the actuator rod either.

Maybe he said it would "work" on a GNX.
