u aint gonna be able to tell if the turbo is a hybrid or not from the outside...where did u buy this turbo from? is there a seriel number on the turbo somewhere? if there is, ring up whoever made the turbo and give them the seriel number and then they should be able to tell u the spec of the turbo

hope this helps

Fatal mistake you never bought a hybrid turbo anyway even if it ever was at one point, hybrid is the term used when a turbo is specced to match the engine, there are not hybrid 1,2,3 etc just hybrid, a fatal ploy started by companies to get you to spend mucho denero. Although if it is a hybrid of some sort it will probably be better than a std one.

"hybrid" harks back to race days when teams would machine parts from different turbine manufacturers to fit other aprts to create a turbo suitable for their needs
