Has any one ever heard of Roto-Master turbo? Specifically a Roto-Master T04BRM 7. I looked up their site and they seem decent. If this is in the wrong section I apologize and please redirect me thanks. Any help would be great.:icon_bigg
roto-master turbo

They're mainly known for Caterpiller and other Diesel turbochargers... Other than that, I can't say much on them 
Rotomaster is a copy of Garrett. Most performance turbos are "diesel" turbos that have been made into a hybrid.
Do you have the specs on it? Pics? Links?

Appears to be a To4b-38
If it is, it flows about 38-40lbs/min of air on the compressor side.
FWIW, its a very easy turbo to bore the housing out on, and install a larger wheel.

I have a roto master on my car with 550's, and it pulls like a son of a bitch...... and btw roto-master = Garrett,
garrett bought out the company a few years back but uses the name for its bigger diesel and cat turbos like stated, i have heard this from the company itself when i got it rebuilt, i also heard it from 2 shops in town that rebuild turbos mostly for diesels.

You are correct sir = Roto Master = Garrett.
Also, the turbo you are running APPEARS to be either a 60 trim or 60-1.

its a log style manifold that Tun_x built a while back, its a T4 flange, the turbo is an on-center T4. What you have in the picture is the same style exhaust housing.
I didn't know Garrett had bought out Rotomaster! Wow, some of the things I miss :3d_frown:
Also, the biggest problem with diesel turbos is usually the exhaust A/R is massive

when i was looking into getting a cummins 12 valve, the ar on the exhaust was tiny. it was a holset, and it had a huge compressor with a tiny ar.

FYI:
Rotomaster - Case - Garrett - John Deere - Detroit Diesel - Navistar - Honeywell = All the same company turbo charger
KKK - Borg Warner - IHI = All the same company turbo charger
Hitachi - Toyota = All the same company turbo charger
