Title: How do I know which turbo I have
Post by: Kent Border Kenny on August 24, 2019, 11:53:01 pm

Good Evening.

I’ve a 2017 595 Turismo, and would like to know whether this has a Garrett turbo or not?

I’ve just ordered a Bluespark box but specified the other turbo type, so am wondering if I need now to return it for the right one.

I’ve also been interested in this, did you find an answer?

Unless I'm very much mistaken, identity of the engines is thus:-

 Top is Garrett 1446 turbo

 Lower picture is IHI turbo

Just look at the turbo and metal shield at the front of the engine, NOT the oil filler cap :whistle:
