Default 1998 GST turbo question??

I recently bought a 1998 GS-T Eclipse and want to know how to find out what kind of turbo is in this car. The dealer I bought it from didn't know too much except it wasn't stock. I know how dumb could we both be but still I have the car and want to know what kind is on it. It looks kind of big compared to others I have seen. Any help would be great. Thanks,

well stock 2G turbo is the T-25 but the T-28 uses the same housing correct

and the stock 1G is a 14B which uses the same housing has a small 16G. the compressor housing just faces different on these than the T25 does

T28 uses the T25 housing so it would still look stock...im guess it is still stock becuae no one upgrades a turbo with out fuel system, piggy back at least, and a hand full of other supporting mods. plus if it were a 14B housing that is easy to tell the difference on a 2G.

well the a/r 0.30 has to do with the compressor sizing. Im not sure what the f2211 means though

After looking into this into more detail that is a very small A/R ratio. I am going to have to say that MUST be either a stock turbo, or a t28 since i think they both used the same compressor
