    Lapping the block?

    LOL if you had access to a Lapping table I think you could get a great finish that was flat but with a hand held it's never going to be flat! Good sharp tooling with LOTS of clean coolant will give an almost mirror finish, this doesn't happen at most shops though!

    14 blade Comp wheel with very upright blades I would have thought would be a huge clue to what this beast is! (just knocked off for lunch so I won't get a chance to search till after work tonight)

    Jake: "Trim" refers to the Wheel size in the T04 range it went by letters ie: M N O P Q and so on so you could swap and change wheels and housings to make the T04 work in a variety of applications. So in effect a Q trim .7ar T04 is going to take more mass flow to reach 15 PSI than an M trim...

    Is it just me or do the Compressor blades look awefully straight? (Suspected big backfire will do that) Look at the Taller blades in this pic and compare them to Jakes>>

    PLEASE HELP! What turbo is this? *pix 56k/ok*

    Ok no need for the pic Jake! (I thought if it were a divided housing that may have an effect on things) It looks a bit like a T04R but the Turbine trim looks HUGE! Can you measure the Comp and Turbine Wheels?
