Help Me Identify This Turbo
This turbo came with a mostly FM turbo kit I bought a few years ago. It seemed to have a mix of old and newer parts, so I'm unsure as to which turbo this is. I believe older kits had non ball bearing turbos, so just trying to figure out what exactly this is. Any help is appreciated; there is not a serial/model number plate on this turbo as there are with newer Garretts.

That is almost certainly a GT2560R. Or it could be a journal bearing T28. Is there a built in restrictor in the CHRA oil feed inlet? If no its journal bearing.

is the PN emblem still riveted to the chra? that would tell you for sure, but most likely it's a 2560

point a flashlight into the oil feed or drain hole, if you can see a shaft that's about 2-3mm thick, it's likely JB. If you see a much thicker shaft, something about the size of a ball bearing, at least a quarter inch in girth, it's likely BB.
That's all I can think of. (and honestly, performance wise they will be identical so who cares) |
This is a 2560 ball bearing. I am running the same exact turbo on my AVO kit. Fm used to source these turbos from AVO.
By my metal tag and chra number it's a turbo off an s14 240sx with a machined inlet and outlet. Very good turbo. |
I think your all making assumptions about this turbo , it may well self identify as a super charger for all we know. Oh wait wrong thread .....my bad.
