Which turbo do I have?

I have an '87 300D turbo, and I want to be sure I am getting full boost, but I need to know if I have a KKK or a Garrett turbo in order to proceed. How do I tell which I have?

Look for 3 K's in a triangle logo, if not present it is garrett.

Probably on the side you can't see.

Sorry I dont know, and will be dark by the time I get home. If you are not finding it is prob the garrett.
