Looks like
Compressor: 0.60 AR T04E compressor housing
Compressor wheel: you will need to get a dial indicator and measure the diameter of the inducer (the fins visible from the front with the housing on) and the exducer the outer find when you pull the housing) then you might be able to better track down the specific wheel, but you can't just EYE BALL THIS.
However I think it is probably a 50 or 57 Trim compressor wheel, which is good to at least 400 whp on SR or KA motors without cams but with higher boost.
The turbine is 0.63 T3 Turbine with Internal WG Hole/Port already in it. It is also using the standard Ford Turbo 5 bolt boltpattern. Turbine wheel also would need to be Id'd by Garrett tech or engineer but looks to me like a Stage 5 Standard T3 Turbine Wheel. Stage 5 Turbine wheel is a more aggressive and larger T3 Turbine
This is a very standard cheapo, old school Garrett/Air Research 50 TRIM T04E T3 Turbo to me.
Kind of laggy though and this is a Journal Bearing or Thrust Bearing turbo for sure, probably not BB.
