i hope you didnt pay much for that.

Does look like a Diesel turbo as mentioned its tiny lol

Southie i dont think an off the shelf kit was available but courtney (sp?) did a few turbo conversions

Manifold looks very simuler to a Courtenay job,

Turbo looks very small tho, I'd fit a t25 or simuler or you will hardly notice the difference.

i also got intercooler/downpipe/oil filter relocation kit with oil cooler/loads of pipes/oil feed and return pipes. needs a few bits and bobs

pics make the turbo look smaller than it is. but its still small. its got a metal plate with
turbo technics
