I dont see any numbers or letter on the castings itself, However there is small plating which reads what i have listed above.
Is there a way to identify this w/ the serial number?

Sorry man but most likely nobody will be able to help. I think you should contact Turbonetics and find out what #'s should be on there to verify. I'd imagine a 60 trim would be a T3/T4 hybrid with a T04 housing, but sounds like someone sent you a T3.

You've got the exact same turbo I just got - I pulled it apart, measured the wheels - You have a P trim T4 wheel, in a T3 .84 housing, with a T61 wheel in the compressor housing.

Just call it a T61

BTW - it's a T3 footprint, that's it.
