this might sound a bit daft to most of you but how do you know wat turbo is on your car? cheers gaz.

 

post up a pic and some of us will try and tell you what it is; also let us know what engine you have

 

There is a tiny little blue/silver oval plate on the body somewhere near the bolts that have the info, the housings are marked by thier size.

hello, cant see the plate. it has garrett A/R 42 on the housing. cant read any no. on exhaust housing. the car is a 2wd saff cossy. dont know how to put pics on. thanks for replies.

 

post some pics mate, unless its something very unusual it will easy be recognised.

exhaust housing a/r number is more important, compressor one means bugger all really.

what? on SOME turbos, but there are hundreds of different brands and styles of turbos, all have different says of IDing them, and a plate like that is deffo in the minority, esp with something written on it anyone will understand.

 

if the car is standard i suspect it just the standard t3 turbo with a .48 exhaust housing

 

ill try and put some pics up. thanks for all the replies.
