New to the turbo engine scene, I recently bought an 82 300SD and am not sure what turbo it has on it. I saw this ad and was wondering it this would be an upgrade over what is on the engine now? Thanks for any help or recommendations.

We live in a world that goes faster every day and it seems there's a lack of time for each one of us

Since it's from an old Saab (gas engine), I wouldn't put one in a diesel. Generally speaking, gas turbochargers have larger compressor than turbine and diesels vice versa.

It would be a major downgrade. The .63 A/R turbine means it wouldn't spool up until around 3500rpm.
