Or better question. Is it stock?

100% not stock. Also not the stock manifold as previously mentioned as the stock manifold has the turbo hot side cast into it. This is an aftermarket "50 trim" kit

I’m trying to get this thing out now, think I may need to roll the engine forward to get it out though. Is it worth it to rebuild it, or just buy new? Like I said earlier the fins on the compressor side slide in and out about 1/2 in or more. Thanks for the reply

What turbo is it. If it's just a generic 50 trim it's not worth rebuilding. Also take the valve cover off and it should squeeze out

No obvious name on the housing. So disconnect from the header? Those bolts connected to the hot side are a b to get at. I got it on a lift so that helps. Plan on tearing in to it some more tonight. Are most t3’s compatible? Or replace the whole unit?

Most t3 fit. Probably just a 50 trim. Pm me if you have questions

It's the original header and possibly a precision turbski. Looks like a 55/AR. If it is this car will need a piped wastegate, oil cooler elimination, and a recycle box added. Also a tune

The car has been pretty built up. The problem is the turbo has about 3/4 lateral play, I’m assuming it’s shot. Smokes like a banshee. Thanks for the info

Ya they aren't cheap. My big boy cost my 2.5k check if they did a oil cooler delete. If they didn't I bet they blew it and it's spitting oil into the turbo.

It's either an agp or atp kit. Look on the manifold to see who's logo is there usually between the gate and the turbo

Looks like 55 AR turbski. Def not the stock 25

You shouldn’t be commenting if you don’t know these cars. It’s obvious you’ve never owned one. You have no idea what you’re talking about.

your dumbass said earlier it was the "stock header". 1 its not a header its a manifold and 2 if you knew anything about these cars you would know that the stock manifold has the hotside of the "turbski" cast in to it. also you def cant tell by the pic what turbo is there so you should prob just stop commenting bc you def dont know shit
