Hey, took the turbo and head off my CGT clone to find an oil leak, and was taking a close look at the mfg tag on the turbo. It's a Hatch & Kirk tag, the part numbers are these:

K26-2470-R5.10, or 6.10, I'd have to take tag off to confirm.
5326-970-7007XR
T 3607-02H
931.123.012.05

Looking at Nicks posting, http://www.924board.org/viewtopic.php?t=15595&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=kkk&start=0

This is a '79 ROW turbo? If so, any benefit over US version?

Yes, it's a 6.10, and it's heading to Majestic soon!

What are the benefits of a ROW turbo vs. US?

US turbos and RoW S2 versions used a K26 2664 4.10 over a K26 2470 6.10 used in RoW S1's. Therefore the US/RoW S2 hotside has smaller volume to extract gasses than the RoW S1 version.

There's a bit more to it but best to keep the 6.10
