Without calling turbo tecnics does this look like a t34?

Doesn't look like t3 looks bigger but to me looks like someone has just stuck that badge on. Turbo dosent look like it's been rebuild and looks old but badge looks new.

Well I have my eye on another turbo on eBay ATM. Guy says it's a .70 twin scroll exhaust housing external gated. Would that be too bad on a 2ltr zetec turbo?

.70 would be a lag slag, and the link to the other turbo looks poor mate the blades look rough so the rest will be dead i bet.

Yeah I was thinking it far too big for a zetec really. Just was taken by the manifold and price ATM. Plus on the advert it says t3. Will keep looking for a decent priced t34

I wouldn't buy either of those... The first one looks like it's sat at the bottom of the ocean and that ID plate is so obviously stuck on.
The second one is a cheap ebay special... XS Power.

Ring turborebuild mate in blackpool or talk to burniesblowers on face book. i used turborebuild and are spot on but theres no such thing as a good cheap turbo if you follow you will end up buying 2 or 3 times and cost more in the end
