Default Type of turbo? Questions about it??
I have never owned a car with a turbo nor built one. I've built every other type of motor and know the ins and outs so, I need some help.

I measured the specs I believed to be important.
I can't seem to find the brand either, but it was said to hold "1500hp".


My question:

What are the specs I need to know on this turbo?
What brand?
Max hp? Boost?
Anything else I should know....

That is a 189$ eBay GT45. It will NOT hold 1500hp I'm hoping you paid 150 bucks for it. Most that thing will make is 700ish whp
