I have been talking to a guy who says he's selling some K24 18g's. He sent me some pics, and from the looks of them, the turbine side looks like a K16... or am I wrong?

If these are really K24 18g's I'll probably buy them.

Take a look.





Thanks guys.

Can't tell, that's the only pic he sent me of them and it's too dirty. I was just going off the pic from the turbine side, and looked up a few pics posted of K16 vs K24, and to me, it looks like a K16.

Can anyone tell for sure from these pics?

Those are mine...(rennlist). I bought them and selling them cheap to who ever wants them. Need to be rebuilt though. I was going to put the new exhaust wheels (18 G's) but decided to step up to HTA3076's. Here is the link on 6speed as well.

OP, the turbo's look like early UMW 16/16G's. Hard to say with the "patina" but I would guess that.

Apparently not. Found them on Craigslist... Googled the phone number and it pulled up a listing for a Porsche/BMW performance shop.

Definitely not one I'm going to be doing business with!
