Turbo identifacation?

[95_GSX]

when i bought my car the guy i got it from had an extra turbo that he gave me. he said it fit the car. it has a shitload of shaft play and needs to be rebuilt. but i have no idea what turbo it is.are there any marking that i could look for or an id number i could run somewhere and find out what it is?

Not in specific, your best bet is to take it to a dealer and have their mechanic check it out. They will give you an answer. It might even be another stock turbo that he pulled out of a junkyard. Who Knows.

If it a mitsubishi turbo it will have a number starting with TD on the on the compresser side of the turbo. Ex TD05, TD06, ect. If it is a Garret it should say T-xx somewhere but I don't know where

[95_GSX]

thanks at least that gives me something to look for.

Since its a 95 , Its prolly another T-25

what is a better aftermarket turbo a hybrid or garret?

[Talon007]

First of all, there is no answer to which turbo is better, second, you can have a hybrid garret

YUP There are T3/T04 Hybrids that can hand out over 1000 Hp.

WTF is a 25g?

[turbo2nr]

itz a td-08 i seen it on a wrx its made by greedy i want to know if it can fit on a 4g63 without to much modification and is it hard to spool cause it is so big?

[Talon007]

The only thing I could find was T-67 25g, for Subaru applications. So it wont fit on a Mitsu manifold. And that is a huge turbo, you wouldn't hit full boost until 7000rpm or so. So in other words useless on the street

If you want streetable power , stick with the 20G and a 3" turbo back system. You'll get full boost at 3500-4000 , just like a normal car. You can also go the T3/T04 route , if you want more power than the 20G can throw down. Mitsubishi also made a turbo called the 30V , for power applications in excess of 700 Hp , but demand was so small they stopped making it years ago , and its unlikely any ever made it to the states.

All you need to know if a 20g gets boring.

The FP Green/Red series is nothing more than rebadged T3/T04's . You'll save tons of money NOT going the FP route. Been there , did that.
