It will have a "HKS T04Z" on the compressor housing. Also, the compressor housing has drilled surge porting and a 70mm outlet. The turbine housing is also a divided unit.

Cheaper alternative(Basically the same turbo,but no HKS Tag):Garret T67 DBB aka GT37R.

If you are still in search of 1000hp the T04Z will fall short of that mark. Which one do you have in mind? AR .61, .81 or 1.00? Something from the GT37 or GT40 line would leave money that can be spent on other parts.

Look at this pic. Unless an exact cast is made of the compressor housing it will be difficult to pass of a fake as a real "Z".

Thanks i know that TO4Z can not get up to 1000hp that is why my second reason in selling it as it is new in box,is because i want to trade it with a bigger one.

For the power you are seeking the GT42 is proven item. GT42's cost half the price of the HKS T51 series but produce the same results.
