This may be a silly question, but why can't you just measure it? (what am I missing here?)

maybe this "tubo" was a bluf and he is installing one on his two tone... (I mean there are no two tone turbo's in i am not mistaken (correct me if I am wrong) Maybe the other way around is an easier gues : he resprayed his turbo... hmm. , wel let me stop guessing, It not a healty thing to do anyway.

yeah, a real funny question... Why ???

i going to measure it on sat, when i get home from work its always dark cold and normally raining too (the joys of living in scotland).

Yeah the previous owner had repsrayed the bumpers. Today i found out the bumpers were original green, then light grey (to match the car) and then dark grey!!!

dont know what he was up to but it is a turbo :D
