It is not a factory turbo.
It has a factory elbow for downpipe.

I was guessing TE44 until I saw the size of the inlet. I'll second the TE60

So should i order a rebuild kit for a te-60? I want to remove the compressor housing, only to replace the o-ring.... I did a boost leak test and felt the air coming out if the compressor housing seam

Looks like it might be a t04b, not a t04e so it's probably not "TE" anything. Measuring the inducer/exducer will make identification easy. The cover has to be machined to use an o ring. May not have the machining to use an o ring

I'm sry to sound noobish but to get to the exducer/inducer & measurement I have to just remove the cover off only?


87 GN
30 lbs injectors
K&N air filter
Scanmaster
Hydro boost
The rest is stock
 
The inducer is 58.48 mm
The exducer is 70.00
Also to note there is a stamp on the intercooler outlet that says .70 ....can see it on one of the pictures here
