guessing hx50?

Well based on the serial number on the ex housing Its a Borg Warner...

still not sure if it will be useful

tell him to just run it and see what happens. I don't understand people wanting to identify their turbos if they already have them. if he's really concerned he could measure the compressor and turbine wheels and get a guess at the turbo's ability.

I've got a T88 that would go great on a lsx, see my FS thread

I did mention your add to him.

He's a slow old man so it'll likely be a while till he gets back to his office to measure the thing. but the inlet didn't look too huge... no bigger than the width of a beer bottle anyways.

i told him to measure as if he was trying to measure the dia of the wheel he could see in each side; here is what he came up with.
3" inlet
3-7/8" ex

So for us turbo guys:
76mm compressor inducer
98mm exhaust exducer

is it a divided housing?
still sounds perfect, chuck 'er on and engage noggle switch O0

Look at the turbine pic, it's got 2 obvious humps to be divided.
My friend's ls1 has an undivided t78 iirc, and it spools around 3k. Even with ginormous exhaust parts, a lsx with a divided manifold would still spin that shit fast.
