Didn't know where to exactly put this thread. Right now im waiting on some pics to come back for a turbo off of a detroit. Are there any turbos I should avoid? I have been researching a lil here and hope to grab this one for cheap and then send it off to get rebuilt.

most likely its a gt4294 71mm compressor inducer 83/75mm turbine wheel with a big ol' t6 turbine housing for the 13 liter engine. Scrap that and put on a 1.01 or 1,15 garrett t4 housing and be on your way
Awesome, thanks! I don't need to worry about a v band turbine housing instead of the asymetric 4 bolt turbine housing?

It attaches to the CHRA with a v-band clamp, but standard 4 bolt t6/t4 flange at the manifold it was on

If you don't end up getting that one holler at me. I have one setting on the shelf. It needs a new compressor wheel, rebuilt, and turbine housing. The expensive stuff is there though. Lol! PM and you can have it for $50. When i rebuilt it the first time i paid $200 for the compressor wheel and I don't remember but not much (like $50) for the rebuild kit. I also bought a housing for $200 off the Psn for sale section. I had an intake pipe failure and sucked in a vacuum line before i got my GTX.
dang, pm!

i think with the turbo he's talking about the exhaust housing is bolted to chra instead of a v band. older 12.7s used that turbo and if it is that one the housing is huge

They're vbands. At least on the 4294 anyway. And they'll all have the huge T6 housing. That's why we said he needs a t4 housing.
