Where can you find the turbo number?

Would you like to know the price or stock for a certain type of turbo? Then it is very useful if you provide us with the correct turbo number. This way we prevent you from getting the wrong advice and we can deal with your question more quickly.

You will usually find the turbo number on an aluminum plate affixed to the compressor housing of the turbo. Not only are there an enormous number of types of turbos and applications, there is also a great deal of variation possible with the type plate. That is why looking up the article number can sometimes be a bit difficult. Can't find the turbo number on the compressor housing? Then look at the back of the inlet, the so-called back plate. Or at the lower house.

Which number?

There are always several numbers on the rating plate. In addition to the article number, the manufacturer of the turbo often also states the OE number and a production code. It is not always clear which number is the item number. Sometimes it is at the top, sometimes at the bottom. So send us all the numbers: we know what to do with it.

Is the turbo number no longer readable?

It sometimes happens that the plate is missing or that it is no longer legible due to wear or oxidation. In that case, you can request an OE number from the manufacturer of the vehicle or machine.

If that also fails, we try to identify the turbo using photos of the turbo and with our 35 years of experience.Contact us here.
