Check out this turbo

[Phyrx]

It came with my CA18DET Motorset from JHOT. Seems interesting enough.

It seems to be the same specs as a SR20 turbo, reading A/R .80 on the front cover. Yet it doesn't have the flange on the inlet.

A buddy told me that it was a European CA18DET turbo, does this sound correct?

looks like mine, but with less oil on it.

I think its a pretty standard issue CA t25.

[Phyrx]

Yes, but does a standard CA18DET turbo say A/R 80 on the front??

Yea, I think the standard compressor housing is .60. That is weird...

[Phyrx]

Told you

What turbo do I have?? haha

Is it true that the european CA18 had an SR spec turbo like my Nissan Guru buddy told me?

My euro 200sx is super stock with the original turbo so I can tell you what numbers I have if I can remember to do so . Just out of curiousity what head is on there? The 8 port or 4 port???

I could've sworn my stock CA turbo was like a .45 a/r on the compressor. Oh well, I'll check when I get home.

[Phyrx]

Is there a way I can tell if it is the 8port o r 4port without actually removing the intake manifold??

[Jiggyfry]

Out of curiosity I went and checked mine and it says A/R .48. I was always under the impression the stock CA turbo was .48, then again I've only had my engine for a month now.

i have one in my hand. stock garrett t25 off an 89 silvia. the compressor is .48 and the turbine is .49, so i dont know what you guys have/are smoking.

Just look at the submanifold, on an 8 port you can see the split to 8 ports.

Ill check as soon as I get the head back from the shop!

My mistake, I just double checked an old pic of mine when I sold it. It does say A/R .48 oopps

[Phyrx]
