Curious to now what the size of the turbine and compressor are, anyone know how to figure this out? Also can anyone shed any information on this ebay seller?

Cheers

If my eyes can see right, I think I see an a/r .80 exhaust housing on it. That's about a 14cm which is a good size. As for other numbers, the only way to really know is to either measure the wheels or get numbers from the data tag which is on the center section of the turbo. A quick google search I made turned up a serial number to go along with the part number for ya... P/N: 147-9532 - S/N: C200602.

If that is the right s/n then it is a S200. Since it was for Cat, it has the "C" I have one of them off from a C7, and is a S200 with .80 a/r housing. It is a 58mm comp. 65mm turbine.

Probably be a decent turbo, just not much bigger that a HX35. It does not have the dual passage wastegate likea aftermarket performance S300. Has a different exhaust outlet too.

Hey Jimbo and CaptainC thanks a lot for your knowledge, I am looking for an s300 for a good towing/spooling twin set up. Looking for something comparable to a 62/65/12 S300, just looking to get lucky I suppose. You guys think I should just shell out the dough for an aftermarket s362/65/12?

If it is a 57/65/14 it's basicly a s200 (s300g) not upgrageable to say a 62, however I had the same thing (bd power super b) on my common rail after a he351 and was a better turbo IMO I would had loved one on my first gen back when it was the hot rod
