Turbo ??

my2cent · 05-02-2012

I think its a big 16g turbo with a evo 3 turbine wheel. Can anybody help me out?

No way to tell from just the picture especially since that is the compressor side, anything from a 14b to 18g.

Judging from the compressor wheel its more than likely some sort of 16G. Get the serial numbers off the compressor housing.

14b's are a -b series turbo and have ~12 blades, like this:

That is definitely a -g wheel and judging by the size it looks like a 16g, not sure if it is a small/big/evo though.

The way to tell is by the stamp on the comp(starting with 49178-01), which looks to be polished off? You may have an ebay-knock-off there, but not sure.

On the hot side the number is 78-13700 070 F5. Yeah the evo stamp is missing which is pissing me off. I should of done a better research before I bought it. I did ask Justin from dsmtuners. He said he think it's an standard 16g with an evo3 16g turbine wheel.The internal wastegate is not adjustable. Anyways thanks guys!
