hello.

well, a few years back i bought some inventory from a supplier that went bankrupt, and there were some new turbo's in that too.

As we all like cheap ass racing, i was thinking about using this one, but the exhaust housing is really big, so i don't know if it might work.

numbers:
Schwitzer (brand)
pn# 316468
serial # 24g02-0329
number on exh. housing : 317612 hsm 481 51 2

this turbo is huge

Can anybody help me?

looks like Borg Warner now owns Schwitzer. You've got yourself a diesel tractor/truck turbo. It's map is gonna be way off from where you'd want for a normal gas car.

well think of the rpm range of a diesel truck/tractor compared to a car. the amount of exhaust a diesel pushes out is huge compared to a car..the cylinder size alone is ridiculous. Thats why the exhuast housing can be so damn big on those things.

I've never seen anyone try to use something like this on a normal car...so its just speculation on my part. But i would imagine you'd have a tough time spooling that turbo quickly.

did you get any junk turbos? I need two of the two-bolt washers that hold the compressor housing on.
