What turbos am i running??

Hi All,

So i am trying to figure out what turbos i have before considering a turbo upgrade for my 1995 R33 GTR. I am not sure whether they are stock or are already upgraded and if so what would be the limits of them as a pair.

both turbos generally look the same although some of the information on the tags are different. The details given in the tag for each turbo are as listed below.

Turbo 1 -  'Honeywell Garrett'

P/N: 707160/5007s

S/N: NG 0122J

 

Turbo 2 - 'Garret Allied Signal'

MH 0412J

14411 - AA403

707160-7

If someone could clarify what exactly i am running, that would be great as i am new to the turbo world lol.

P.s From the research i have done, i think they are GT2860R's... not sure if these are stockies?

Cheers

look like -7 

possible that at some point one broke and was replaced or they were from different batches which is perfectly fine.

To answer your question - are they stock?  No.  They are Garrett aftermarket turbos - the dash 7 is the smallest of the range of Garrett's you may chose from.  In order of size they are 707160 dash 7, 9, 5 & 10.

Thanks for that djr81 and Sucram. Would you be able to determine the output of these in a pair?

Also what would be there limits in terms of boost?

They can be usually pushed pretty far for a "Stock" (ish) part. They're similar to the stock ceramic turbos but they're made of steel, so, yay.

People can get 300kw from them or thereabouts if wound up. They're useful to max out the rest of the stock GTR equipment, be it fuel pumps, injectors, etc on 98 fuel. As for the boost pressure required do that I'm not entirely sure

Thanks for the info mate, would that be 300kw for the two?
