Twins with cheap turbo?

I managed to get a hold of a turbo from work for the cost of scrap metal and i would like to know if it is big enough to go under my pdr hx35/14wg? Dont know what it came off of because i found it on a pallet. The intake wheel is 67mm and the exhaust wheel is about 75mm i say about because i cant get the calipers in there with the exhaust housing on. On the intake side it says Air Research. The exhaust housing reads 1.21 AR.

I would not do it! Unless you know what you have and you can fab all the parts that you need don't bother! I just cheaped out on a used Hx40 that I was warned not to buy and I did anyway and I could;nt get thing to work at all! my next turbo will be new and a Name that I can count on.

AirResearch i a Garrett brand.

67mm is too small to make it worth the hassle of fabbing twins, imo. I'd personally want at least 73mm on the inducer to make it worthwhile-- nothing special about that number, but good singles are out there up to 71mm or so.
