Default Turbo identification

I've got a 93wrx and had it for 3 years last Sunday it was pointed out to me that i have an IHI turbo (never bothered looking before).
On the plate identifing the turbo the turbo spec plate and part number are blank.
The serial number starts off with RH ican't get a good look because there is a 90deg bit of pipework pointing upwards blocking off any good view of it and cannot get a good piccy to show.
Does anybody know what turbo it could be(the car was running a power fc but it was taken off)?
Yes i know its 'how long is apiece of string type question' but any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Paul

Td05 turbos are Mitsubishi, therefore not IHI.

Right i've looked on IHI website and all it states is that it is a RH series turbo were these fitted to any imprezas as standard?

Thanks for the replies just had a look and it looks like the 90deg elbow is welded to the turbo.
Are there any problems running this turbo (i have a z4 ecu running the car)
