the number on metal TIP is: Austria-AM2 140600

that doesnt make any sense either?
 
I thought that there was two KO4 turbos that where fitted to the LCR the 023 and 022 one has the fitting for the egt? and one hasn't i think one's from the 210 and the other the 225. Please correct me if i am wrong :p

I think (but I'm not certain) that you might be wrong, my 210 LCR definitely has the EGT sensor although I'm aware that the EGT sensor is fairly uncommon to have generally speaking.
 
That turbo is not from any LCR 210 or 225. The ehaust flange has 4 studs. All LCR's have 3 exhaust flange studs. Could be one of the turbos off a RS4.
 
I see this is now on ebay and the bloke you bought it off said its from a 225bhp LCR


Did you ever get to the bottom of what it was off?
