Default need turbo info

I currently am in possession of a Garrett turbo and need some more info on it.

The metal tag has a part number 409750 and four other numbers that are hard to read. I got this turbo from a buddy that owed me money and I am not sure what application i could use it on or ho much it is worth.

Some things I know about this turbo. It has a T6 flange and I am told it is a T18A90.

I have pics here for you

that my friend is a big *** turbo, and is probably worth 1200 bucks. and my guess is it is capable of somewhere around 800 hp or more. You better be building like a 400+ cubed forged motor. and my other guess is its probably a diesel turbo from the quick search i just did.

It's 1 of four T18A90's off a 16V92TA, 1472C.I, V-16 Detroit Diesel. Compressor wheel is 91.1x127.0mm and the turbine wheel is 129.5x106.2mm. Depending on what that last 4 numbers are that you say you can't read it should have a 1.50A/R or a 1.32 exhaust.
Good score. Same turbo aftermarket places make some of their 91mm's out of

Exhaust has 1.32 stamped on it. I tried to load a pic of it but it wouldn't take.

Well, the next question I have is; what is the going value for one of these?

I am looking for a smaller turbo and a set of 317 heads. I definitely do not need this big of a turbo. I am only looking for around 600hp.

They retail for 1977.88. You should be able to get a easy 750.00 or more for it.
