Default Can someone help me identify this turbo?

I was told this was Precision 76GTS but it doesnt look like any Precision Ive seen:
Not the Masterpower, lol



There is no marking, or engravings. I dont see a serial number anywhere either.

Well I was looking on Forced Inductions site and they have a similar turbo on their page for their Precision turbos.

What are those markings on the compressor wheel? My precision has a similar looking circle engraved in one of the blades. Got a close up pic of it?

Back in the day. Precision used to use Holeset compressor housings. Which this is. Does this have a billet backplate? Also on the rim around the back of the compressor housing there should be a PTGS76(?) stamped in it. This is the model of the turbo. If need to be I can come over to see if I can tell if it is or not. I had a couple pairs of Precision turbos. Is seems this is just a older one before they started to cast their name in the housing.

There is an engraving(more like a carving) that says 76GTS or something similar. The backplate does resemble billet, although I havent had much experience with billet in person.
