Just got a turbo and having a hard time figuring out what it is, from what I can pull up on google the hot side is a Garrett gt3076 with t2 flange, cold side has no markings and looks eBay.

On the flange it has the numbers 449010-1

On the hot side it has .64 and m3

Center section has no plate but has k2 stamp

Cold side has no markings at all

There is also no plate giving pn or sn.

When I spin it it won't stay spinning which from what I read means its journal bearing, or at least I hope it is cause it has a lot of in/out shaft play and needs rebuilt. But it has water and oil lines which most ball bearings have. I need to figure out what it is so I can have it rebuilt. Never pulled one apart before but I'm guessing I'm going to have to so I can measure everything and see if its ball or journal bearing

compressor housing looks like its off a 2554r sr20 variant also it looks only to have a 4 bolt style clamp on the exhaust housing. This would lead me to believe this is not a garrett unit and a china turbo. Easiest thing to do is take off the exhaust housing and measure the wheel. Next thing i would do is take off the snap ring that holds the compressor housing on measure it. Once you get both of those you can figure out what the turbo is comparable to.

Edit: the turbo is oriented in a way to be a direct swap for a sr20.

Also can you get me a shot of the turbine wheel/wg port area? This would help me figure out a few things
 
fyi from my experience journal bearing turbos seem like they have a bit of shaft play until they have oil in them. not alot, but a bit.
 
This one has a lot. Turbine wheel is ****** and the housing ok

It is a Godspeed t25, we found more markings lol. Either way its not big enough for what I need
