Need Help....I did do a search....

I need to know if there are any differences visually in the Turbo, rear end and the NA rear end. I need to know what to look for. Is there something distinguishing between the two? Pictures would be awesome.

I'll try to take pics but 1 thing to look for would be the limited slip tag on the bottom drain plug.

width of the flange is the only way to tell.

So I would assume the dirty one is the NA and the clean is the Turbo.

Without measuring the flange and seeing which one is actually bigger, it does appear the dirty one is a non turbo

Ok next question. I am going to assume that I have a non-turbo rear end since that is just how the whole tear down has been so far. If I yank the rear end out will I still be able to roll the chasis? From being under the car all day today I don't see any problems with that, but I want to be 100% sure.

Just unbolt the half shafts and hang them on some wire loops.

It will look like the pictures you posted.
