Looks like one from a 3/4 or 1 ton turbo diesel, and it looks like it would work well on my V10 (6.7L) Excursion, probly should bid, LOL.

That is an Ebay / China turbo. The no markings, .60 comp A/R, .81 turbine A/R, 66mm comp. wheel all adds up to an Ebay GT66. I think SSAC has the specs. Do an ebay search for GT66. It will come up with SSAC GT66 specs, but then the add will be for a GT45 w/ 1.05 A/R turbine. More of that great turbo false ADs on Ebay.

Notice that it says T-67 but the intake is 2.5". 67mm is 2.64", so he must mean the comp. discharge is 2.5" or it is being mis-represented.

The turbine outlet looks to have a mild steel pipe welded to it using a mig. The weld is ugly and hopefully the v-band flange surface isn't too messed up. If you buy it I would cut off that junk and grind/machine the v-band flange surface.

If you really are interested in it. Ask the seller to measure the inducer size of the comp. wheel and ask about the weld that was done to the turbine and if it looks repairable. That weld looks like it is about ready to break off. Cast will crack sometimes if it wasn't welded properly. The weld looks so cold that it will probably be fine but still break off.

One other thing to consider is that there are no rebuild kits available for those things that I can find. If there was a rebuild kit available, I would be all over it.

EDIT: Ford and GM diesel turbos look nothing like that turbo.

Yeah, junk, after looking again I see what you are talking about. I also didn't notice the extra pics so mistakingly thought that was the same flange from the turbo deisel, man you have a good eye!
Also do you know where dave and I can get a map for the twins I've got? (I started a new post in power adder for it): https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/power-adder/402615-need-help-getting-map.html

EDIT: You are going to have to copy and paste this link won't work for some reason.

That used China GT66 is up to the price of a brand new one. It is crazy how the mis-informed push up the price of turbos. Definitely not worth biding on.

HAHA, I actually got sucked into that ONCE. Never buy anything off e-bay without doing price checks else where. I found out after the auction that I paid the same as new+shipping!

I am beginning to wonder if maybe it is not a China turbo. Too bad they didn't post pics of the model & manufacturer to show that it was not a China turbo. Really, who would MIG an outlet like that to a $1000 turbo?

If it was not a China turbo (an Innovative, Greddy, etc) then they will get less $$$ than it is worth by not posting the model number. If it was a China turbo then they will get more $$$ than what it is worth by not posting the model number.

If I had thought about it sooner, I would have asked the make of the turbo publically on the auction. I guess it's in his favor for me NOT to, HEHE.

I took another look at it. With the polished back side of the compressor housing I am thinking that it is not an Ebay turbo and more like an Innovative or something like that.


EDIT: Probably a Precision PT-67
