Ok everyone I did a search and no luck. So pretty much I wsa cleaning out my garage and found an old evo 8 turbo I bought a while back and noticed the hotside number casted on the side is 78-13010 115 The question is, is this really just a 9.8 hotside? In size it seems that way but just wanna make sure.
Thanks in advance.

 

what is the code on the compressor housing. it should either have a 9.8t or a 10.5t on it.

 

The code ends in 9.8t on the compresor housing, but Im not sure if the person I bought it from switched out the hotside? Like I said it looks smaller than my 10.5 hotside, but I wasnt sure.

 

he said he bought it used. so it may of been changed. it can be a 10.5hs while the comp side says 9.8. the hotside i be leave also says 10.5 or 9.8

 

yes true. just actually noticed that he bought it used. well it should also say on the hotside somewhere what size it is. good luck.

 

the only numbers on the turbo are 78-13010 115, these numbers are on flange

 

i thought when i got mine it said 10.5 on it as well.

maybe the 9.8 did not say nothing and the 10.5 did.

 

you could try looking it up maybe on mitsubishis site. i dont know if they have technical info like that on there or not though.

 

My hotside has 12 numbers stamped and the last 3 is 10.5

 

called mitsubishi parts and they didn't know anything, told me to call a turbo shop ..thanks mitsubishi

 

if it does not say 10.5 then its most likely a 9.8. the 10.5 hot sides say it

 

Also i think the 9.8 is not a single flapper compaired to the 10.5.

 

there are twin flapper 10.5 hotsides

 

I have a 9.8 HS somewhere in the garage. I'll check it for you tomorrow when I get back home. The 10.5 HS has the numbers "105" cast onto the foot of the housing. The 9.0 housing which I just installed does not have the number "90" cast onto the housing though. So, maybe the 9.8 doesn't either.

 

No luck yet? Anyone?
