CEF11E Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 could be RB25 or VG30 single. both have that marking on the compressor housing. does it have a nipple for a boost/cvacuum line? if it does it is VG30det if not it is RB25.

CEF11E Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 That is 100% a VG30DET turbo as it has a straight outlet join and a nipple for the wastegate actuator. If you are going to use it on an RB20 use the RB20 actuator and you will run 12psi. Also If you are able to find a shagged RB25 turbo you can have the compressor wheel and housing from it fitted to this turbo and you will then have a bastardised nissan turbo with all the best bits!

discopotato03 Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Just the RB25 type Hitachi exhaust housing on that VG30 turbo would wake it up a bit or the RB25 turbo as it is std .
