This is a Garrett Turbo with a compressor A/R of .70 and an A/R .63 exhaust housing, with a 60-1 impeller. It has a percision exhaust housing but all Garrett internals. This Turbo has never been used

Naw looks like a Stage 3 exhaust wheel not a Stage 5 like on the SC61. You would really need the specs on the turbo, is it new? I'm a little scared of used turbo's unless it's been rebuilt right.

the sc61 comes in three optional trims on turbine wheel, 52, 69, 76.....all are rated above 600hp

going on a rb25det, so what are you guesses on how much it'll push? i know its gonna be a lag monster like crazy, but for 420 bucks you cant go wrong, supposedly its a precison exhaust turbine and a garrett chra/ compressor. im going to check it out tomorrow and see how it looks and how the shaft play feels, the seller seems very true and knowledgeable when i asked him why it had the precision exhaust housing.

With the 20psi and race fuel I would say 440-458RWHP and with the daily setup 340-355...
