I was told it is a t-28, but that is it. I know there are many variations of the T-28 but I don’t know which one I have. Here is what I know:
The turbo came off an early FM kit, but I was told the turbo was upgraded.
Compressor
Says A/R 48
Inducer diameter = 40.97mm
Exducer diameter = 50.98mm
=64.6 trim
Turbine
Says A/R 64
Inducer diameter = 52.7mm
Exducer diameter = 42.09mm
=63.5 trim
I’m trying to see what the power potential of this turbo is.
I can add pics if necessary.

Your compressor wheel measurements are a hair smaller than a 2554, and also those currently have a .80 A/R. I believe the .48 compressors were common on the small T25s used on the 300ZX but don't quote me on that. The turbine side sounds close to a 2554 or 2560 but again yours has a more puny compressor. Maybe good for 200 whp? Just a guess.
