I need to find out if one of my T5's has a straight or conical outlet turbo.

The car is a very late 95 car, (96 Model Year). Without removing the turbo, how can I look to see which turbo it has?

Can someone explain in plain english? I've no idea at all what I'm looking for, they all look the same to me.


Cheers, D.

A pure guess, as i havent yet had a good look at my own car yet, the turbo housing (so the shiney metal part of the turbo) if its a straight outlet it will be the same diameter whereas a conical outlet will obviously be more of a cone shape, so narrower at the centre of the turbo and then wider at the end. Am i correct???
