Does anyone here know much about the ATS Turbo Kit?

Been trying to gather information about it recently, id like to know as much about it as I possibly can, I am well aware that these kits are on the less common side of things, hence my reasoning for finding our more about it.

(Photos + Videos of said Turbo: https://photos.app.goo.gl/Ctr5Bt25vyo4uv8q6 )

One of the things Id like to know if the pressure im running is proper or not (it runs at 3PSI at highway speeds) if it has a wastegate or not, and most importantly, if theres anything else I can do to help it perform better

Im mainly trying to look at specifications of this Turbo (rebuild kits if possible)

If anyone has information on it, please do tell, anything helps, thank you.

(1985 6.2)

Not wastegated. Pressure depends on load. 3 psi @ highway speeds is possible. 10psi loaded at high RPM is about the most you'd expect. Pyrometer not to exceed 1200°F.

If I remember when I get to the shop I'll see if I can dig up the turbo part number.

Do you have a complete kit or are you missing pieces

Minus the letters and plus a couple of numbers, that's a Garrett AiResearch part number.

The one on mine is probably the same, but I'll try to double -check it for you.

As long as it's operating correctly, forget trying to hot-rod it. The engine just isn't strong enough to go racing.

Your part number doesn't cross in Garrett, but mine has 408105-5115 on it, which comes up as the cartridge or CHRA (Center Housing Rotating Assembly) so you may still be able to get the moving parts. It shows as a T04B20 model. An overhaul kit for that should be available as well.
