help id this holset turbo
 

I need to know what turbo this is,was told its a hx40. and im not sure what size also, did some messurments but its in mm and I see they check in cm. im guessing its a 58 compresser and a 16 exhaust outlet. I took pics of the #s on it, but no tag on charger just some #s stamped on it. tryed it out, its takes a few secs to spool up, didnt see much of and increase from my hx35. I hope someone can tell me what I have and if any good or not. its a 8 blade wheel. thx

pull the comp housing and measure the wheel.
looks pretty beat up

I can do that, but I was hoping someone could tell buy the #s and by looking at it. I was told it was a hx40 with a 16 exhaust housing what do you think?

I hope its not a fake holset that ive heard about

Kinda crappy, your name plate was removed... Wonder if it was removed on purpose? The name plate would tell you everything you needed to know :(

I did look at holsets id site, with no luck, my #s dont match up, but hard to think with the holset stamped on both the compresser and exhaust that its a fake

guess I will have to try another site

it could very well be an hx40 they made 8 blade 56mm and 58mm wheels and they did make a 16cm housing. not sure but it very well could be

That is a 7 blade for you all that can't count lmfao. I have a super HX40 its a 60/85/16 so just measure the comp wheel this might narrow it down.

it is an 8 blade so you need to recount again and yes it is an hx40 just old and wornout

yes its an 8 blade, so its a 58/something/16 and then I can just buy a rebuild kit for it right. would I be able to change it to a 6 blade, they say that 6 is the way to go. or is it not worth it to redo.
