Turbo ID?

[GN Junkie]

Hey guys,

Just bought a TR and the previous owner didn't know anything about the turbo just that it's a precision. First one to guess wins a prize of unspeakable value

Post pics of the wheels. This is like posting a picture of a chick in a giant winter coat and ask how big are her tits.

Well said, I'll try to get some more graphic photos

You have to pull the covers off and measure the blades.
I'll make a guess tho. 67mm compressor wheel 66mm turbine so 6766

Im going to guess a 71hpq

The car is a mystery, sounds like I'll have to remove the turbo figured as much. It's supposedly a built stroker with champion aluminum heads so I'm hoping for a high end turbo but who knows maybe it was swapped out before sale.

It is a ceramic ball bearing turbo. Pull the inlet pipe and take a picture of the compressor wheel.

Will do thanks

That appears to be a stock turbo... maybe a ta-49






Trolling session complete

I'm positive that's no TA-49 or any other stock appearing turbo but can't offer much help other than that...

Check the inside of the compressor outlet for a model # stamp. 2nd measure the blades.

Looks like good turbo to me. At minimum it's a low 10sec capable turbo. Cant see going any smaller than 62mm if it is a stroker.

Look on the little flat area where the bolt heads are on the shiney pressure side, the should be like 3 letters, dash 2 numbers.. ( for instance cce-44) looks like my turbo
