I guess its a hypremax or probably a non gated atx 088... I'm just making a wag here. These are not my areas of speciality at all. Others will chime in with exactly what this is... One things for sure... Its a non wastegated turbo with slip fit up and down pipes.

I was able to blow up the side of the intake housing.. Its an ATS turbo non wastegated.. You have most of what you need to use it. Just the up and down pipes.. An oil feed line and the intake snail is what missing...

icanfixitall, the turbo came off my 6.9 I have all the parts and everything is set up, and it say ATS on everything BUT the compressor housing says Garret in little letters below the serial number. I have a call in to ATS to run the numbers just to make sure of what I have for when I rebuild it, just waiting on a call back.

Ya if I can make the banks wastgated turbo fit in place of the ATS I would pick it up in a heart beat just dont want to spend the money if it wont work, obviously the up/down pipes would have to be changed but I want to make sure it can mount to the pedestal.

The posting above is true.. Sadly the Banks sidewinder wastegated turbo is made by Mistubishi and rebuild kits are not too difficult to find but... Finding the hot side wheel and turbo shaft is tuff. Been there and have the spare turbo to prove it too... Banks clipped my $1100.00 6 years ago for that....:mad:

Something else that I missed about that turbo.. The "Y" exhaust collecter is not pictured so thats needed for a complete kit... But I'm sure thats a known thing around these parts...

Ats wont have any parts for it, garrett will, dont get a chinese ebay rebuild kit. If you want a good kit let me know, also that is THE hardest turbo to disassemble without screwing up the 150 dollar hot wheel.

someone needs to buy those banks turbos, if I had the dough I would , they are worth way more than that in parts.
