the turbonetics compressor cover is ussally a dead give away. It also has turbonetics on its serial plate.
I would have thought your local DSM friends could figure that one out.

I know it's a turbonetics I need help identifying which turbo it is. How do I tell the difference between a 60-1 and a 62-1?

i believe turbonetics does it by compressor exducer so just measure the exducer on the compressor should give you what it is. but it wont give you if its BB or journal or large or small shaft that you would need to look at the id plate on it. and unless you know what your doing a turbo is one of those things id take to a specific shop to get rebuilt and rebalanced.

maybe Zero R will chime in he is kinda the resident turbo guru
