does anyone have a picture or a way of identifying the stock turbo on the MazdaSpeed Protege?? i just wants to verify if i have the stock one or a upgraded turbo

If its got a crapload of oil collecting on the underside its probably the stocker lol. I'm not sure how you could tell by popping the hood and looking from above. If your car still has the stock exhaust manifold and downpipe the only other turbo that can be fitted without major modification is a t28 turbo which if side by side is a little bigger than the stock t25

yeah it did have alot of oil, lol, now if only i can figure out why its not boosting right now, lol
