Default Help me identify this kit

So here's the story, I got this whole kit for free from a friend. He has a little ricer (civic or something) and it came with his car, the guy he bought it from says everything still works (was used but I don't know for how long, most of the parts with the exception of the turbo look brand new). He didn't have room for it when he moved so he just gave me the whole thing.

The manifold was already wrapped and I didn't want to unwrap it for pictures, but I can post those if it's necessary.

It has the boost controller, fuel controller, gauges and pillar. Hell it even came with some generic hood pins

The tubing is pristine, clean, brand new. the insides are free of gunk, it looks brand new.

The turbo itself is clearly used, but everything spins clean on it as far as I can see. I'm hoping this is a functional kit.


I know very little about turbo setups, so I have several questions for you guru's.


Is this a complete kit? if not, what's missing?

Can anyone identify the exact make of this turbo?

^ Or even better the exact kit? like is this some cheapy ebay kit?


I'm not looking to adapt this to my camaro or anything, but if it's a complete kit, Assuming all is in good order, could this be adapted (excluding the manifold I imagine) to my 02 sentra SE/R?

I'm willing to put money into this to make it work, but if will be more hassle than it's worth, I'll just sell this kit and use the money to buy something else.


I'm saving most of my money for a 5th gen, but until then my little sentra SE/R is my project.

Without further adieu, pictars!

Id bet its a Honda kit and it looks like its Ebay.

Then again, to me, any turbo without a label is ebay and any 4cyl is defaulted a Honda. Because...this is an LSX forum...

I had to check to see if you posted this on April 1st. lol You're probably not going to find anyone on here that has any first hand experiences with the kit you have, as you're asking on an LS forum. You might look at this turbo Sentra kit to see how the plumbing is routed.
