Default what turbo is this?

i have got a turbo which i assumed would be a t34 from looking at the part number saying t3/t4



now correct me if im wrong but isnt a t34 a t3 exhaust housing with a t4 front?

i got a saph cos t3 -48 with 3 bolt down pipe flange and inbuilt wastgate to replace the -63 ERST t3 looking exhaust housing and it doesnt clear the exhaust wheel....

what exhasut housing will i need to fit this to a 3 bolt down pipe with inbuilt wastegate?

really aint sure about this one!

Your guess is as good as mine! They usually use a T3 Hot side with a T4 compressor. They won't be built using Garrett or branded internals and usually fail long before a good brand equivalent.
