BRAND NEW NEVER USED
-WATERCOOLED/OIL CORE WITH 360' BEARING
FRONT A/R 0.7
-TURBINE WHEEL 68mm
TURBINE HOUSING A/R 0.82
T3 FLANGE WITH 3-INCH 4-BOLT STYLE EXHAUST CONNECTION


Thanks guys,

Sounds like an ebay turbo? GT35Rs do not have thrust bearings as they are Ball Bearing, its says, " WATERCOOLED/OIL CORE WITH 360' BEARING "

Regardless turbine a/r is too small.

If you are looking for a journal bearing GT35R here is our Garrett version;

Sounds legit to me. Chinese specials usually have incorrect nomenclature.

Turbocharger - T3/T4, StageIII Turbine wheel with 61mm compressor wheel

http://www.atpturbo.com/mm5/merchant...egory_Code=TBN

Turbocharger - T3/T4, StageIII Turbine wheel with 61mm compressor wheel (61mm inducer and 82mm exducer) and .70 A/R T04S Compressor housing with 4" inlet and 2.5" outlet (alternate T04E housing available with 3" inlet and 2" outlet). Journal Bearing Turbo. 4 bolt or 5 bolt T3 exh hsg with .48/.63/.82. Good for 550HP.

I disagree on the 550BHP rating however. Try less than 400BHP even with the largest .82 housing. Wouldn't even go as far as a stage1/stage2 BNR in my opinion.
