"SMR engines". If you search that, the resultant threads don't make for happy reading.
Of course, it could be a totally different company.
But as above, if you get one from A.F., it'll be perfect and correct. Or you could simply get a 2nd hand OEM 16g off here or eBay, and flog on your existing turbo.
But it begs the Q.: does this mean you have a TD05H 16g with a front entry? If so, it's odds on it's an aftermarket one, as all OEM ones only ever had the upturned entry. (Unless of course yours is an OEM one... But a previous owner has converted it to front entry...???)

Just doing this for a mate at the moment. Its a good way for a bargain turbo, got a td05 for £110 Inc delivery and a front entry cover for £60 delivered. So that's £170 all in! Bit better than £300 for your average vf35 or similar.
I'm sure on eBay you could probably get a td05 for a lot less too if you kept an eye out. No worries about buying fakes if its the oe td05 with upswept inlet from an early wrx.
