I got a turbo from my cousin , but im not sure what size it is it just says garret, he thinks its a 68mm? how do you determine what size a turbo actually is without buying new turbo with papers? any help would be great.

usually its right above the inlet for the Intake.

it probably goes on a semi truck.:yup:
so I measured the "minor"end of the compressor wheel it measures 50mm , will this turbo make any power or is it a waste of time?
wouldnt waste my time with it.
that belongs on a diesel, it has a, hold your breath, 1.32 hotside, that thing is huge, but it has a 70 compressor, so that is ok, i would call garrett and get a replacement hotside for it. shouldnt be too expensive. thats assuming the turbine wheel will fit, id call and ask a garrett dealer for sure, i wouldnt chuck it just yet, if you want to chuck it, ill pay the shipping and you can send it to me. lol

does it look like this

you could also check out zombie on ls1tech. for his gate that uses only part of the turbine until you reach a significant amount of boost. it will work, itll just spool slow.
^^^He measured the Inducer and it is only a 50mm turbo, its not even worth the hassle to install it.
