I need some help identifying a ATR turbo that I bought in 89. The reciept says HP142 TURBOSYSTEM. It looks just like a ta49 from the picures on gnttype.org but I'm not positive. The reason I'm asking is because I don't have a use for it any more and was hoping to sell it. I paid 795 for the turbo and 60 for the bellmouth. It has maybe 10k on it and a handful of passes with no side to side play. Is asking $350 too much? Any help would be appreciated.
I can take pics if needed.

I believe it is a TA-49.

its not a ta-49 its a stage 3a turbo. Te44-Te62 stageIV 895.00 new,20 to 30 hp increase.

Stage II sounds familiar but what is a stage 3a turbo? What is it comparable too?

That's what it says in the 96, 98 catalogs but I don't have one from 89 anymore. I would have to say it's a 49 but take a look.

If in good shape,3 to 4 hundred,low time or no time,maybe 100 or so more.You could have it built bigger.Contact turbo vendor to get options.

Thanks for your help. I already run a pt52 and plan on upgrading to a t70 soon. I've had this on the shelf for the past six years and thought maybe some one could use it. The best I've ran with it was 112 at 22 psi with a super tight converter. (tighter then stock)
