Positive Id On Hks Gt3037 48t

[discopotato03]

I always wanted confirmation on the smallest compressor trim version of the HKS GT3037 and finally found it .

This would be the one that's rated same as the GT2835 56T and likely the Garrett GT3071R though I reckon the larger diameter smaller trim compressor would work better .

Cartridge no 700177-5005 corresponds with turbo number 700382-8 in my HKS parts numbers lists . This turbo is obviously made with a non port shrouded comp cover only , the next number 700382-9 is the non shrouded GT3037 52T and 700382-10 is the GT3037 52T with port shrouded comp cover .

Any idea what A/R turbine housing on that unit, and what engine it was fitted to?

Comp cover looks physically smaller than the ported shroud version - optical illusion only?

Turbos always look strange when you take a closeish shot from that angle . The fella has his thumb over the A/R number but I think it says 0.60 . It's not a T04B housing either .

T04E comp housings always look smaller with the std inlet boss because for memory they are 2 3/4" where the port shrouded one is I think 4" .

The wheel looks a little small at the inducer but the difference between 48/52/56T is 52.8/55/57mm so a whole 4.2mm smallest to largest .
