Yeah, the handful of people that can actually answer that question that are members of CL spend the majority of their time on NA-T cuz CL is so freakin weak. But to save you some time, get yourself a micrometer and measure the diameters of the small part of the front compressor wheel and also the larger part, do the same with the turbine wheel.
