    Please....lend me your ears and spoon feed the turbo noobie..

    It being me.

    Im basically working with 3 different turbos here...

    The

    T25
    TD04
    t3

    Do the t25/td04 have different "to manifold" flanges? I know the t3 is different but im upgrading/replacing the turbo on my saab since its dead bearings dont like to move that quick.... The turbo ive got on there now is a garrett but theres no markings at all that i recognize....the most ive got off the cold side is

    Garrett (92) BC2 "M or W" 27 AIR.48 - cold
    Garrett ZAF 92 "R or B" 72 - hot

    I was told my cars a t25 from one person....then told its a t3 from another person....t3 parts are cheaper so I hope its a t3 but atm I just want to know wtf it is and what ive got to work with....Im not even sure if the previous owner upgraded the turbo to an aero spec or anything which would be the TD04...Theres no real markings and i dont know enough about the things to figure it out so....heres a pic

      yeah its definatly a rectangle not a square or anything. Its got 4 bolts. How many miles on that turbo? price? Condition?
