the flange looks wrong for a T3, I was thinking T25, but I am not sure.

I did, and got nothing.
its a reman unit, so the part number is not the factory one.

I was hoping that one of the gurus on here might be able to help me out.

Airesearch made a few for the smaller Fuso trucks. They were t3's with a short legged turbine. They kicked in at around 1000 rpm and carried to around 2800 rpm. They are OK for trucks with a lower rpm range, but crapola on cars that can easily go past 2800 rpm.

Volvo oil return pipe from the looks of the tag. Volvo uses a lot of mitsubishi, and garrett though. How about a pic of the whole unit?

Just a guess because we don't see many here, but Volvo D24T mid eighties 740 / 760 Turbo Diesel.

I am just curious because the guy says its a T3, but the flange looks wrong for a T3.
I thought maybe T25.
