Looks to be an upgraded IX turbo. I have never heard of that company on Ebay though. Buy with caution.

I would ask one of the vendors on here for a turbo before I bought one off of Ebay unless I was just looking for a core for a BBK or Green or Red or something like that.

It looks like a 9 turbo, but I would not trust it.

We dont work on ebay turbos, only Genuine MHI or Garrett or our own. You would not be able to use this turbo as a core for a EVOGreen or EVORed turbocharger.
