Sup guys..So i bought this turbo thinking it was a s14 t28 but noticed when i got home that wastegate actuator bracket was in a different place. The Compressor outlet piece has also been modified.. it does have the t2* flanges.. manifold and 5 bolt outlet..

Im now thinking its a Pulsar t28 gtir turbo.. any other ideas?? Sorry im not terribly savvy on the nissan turbos.

Nope, i have an s13 and just removed my t25. This turbo is much larger, and the wastegate actuator bolts on the back of the compressor housing rather than next to the inlet.

Anyone else? Its a t28 of some sort, i know this by the ar on the compressor.

looks like a T28 and the guy modified it to fit a car with T25 in it previously. You can tell he modified T25 compressor outlet...

Looks like he also bent the lines to get it to fit on his S13 engine.

I'd return it unless you were the one that blew it.

I plan on returning it, i drove the car literally 15 miles. Im not going to bother with used turbos anymore, going to buy a new gt28r.

It does look like a gtir turbo thats been molested... wasnt that something that was popular a while back because people were being stingy with their rwd t28s and trying to charge out the rear...Nice mani, is that HKS?

Well for the t28 on a s13 what from ive read you do have to modify the outlet pipe off the compressor, which this one has been done. The wg actuator bracket was also cut/welded to be able to use a t25/t28 (s14,s15) wg actuator which worked good for because ive got a hks actuator.

BTW its a Megan Racing manifold.
