looking for 200whp..a some more top end
should i get a greddy kit which is smog legal with td04
or a t25 kit

you really only have to worry about smog law if you're in CA, i think. you can piece one together for cheaper with an i.c. and bov. a t25 is small, you should go with a t3, i pieced my kit together for 1025 with brand new mani. and downpipe and afc. you just have to wait for different parts and ----

u can do a kit for about 1200 bucks if you do it right...

get a used t3 with internal gate
one of em ebay manifolds
custom dp
intercooler
vafc
retard the timing a bit...

should be fine.
resistor box and 450 dsm blue tops will work great also..

custom is the way to go. prefab are rediculously overpriced for just shiny piping.

a t25, a t3 or a td04 form the greddy kit
which one spool up faster?
which one will make more mid- top end...

t3 will spool slower but have the most top end.
take that greddy bs outta your head. u can't just use their turbo, u have to have there manifold as well...


get a t3 from a thunderbird.

u can keep your ac with a t3 turbo....

all the "good" kits like drag, revhard, max rev.. they all use t3/t4 hybrids...

greddy=BOOTY

good and reliable though.

The Greddy turbo isn't to hot, the kit that they sell for the d-series engines is a piece of ----. Without intercooling, and a method of better fuel management you can only run 4-5 psi... with retarded timing at the dizzy its about as quick as you were factory... I mean you'd be boning up $1500 for 20-30 horsepower - is that worth it? :P
Even if you buy their kit you will still need a blow off valve, and intercooler. The turbo itself isn't to shobby, but it does suck with the wastegate they produced for it (bad bleeder and creeper).

The kit wasn't designed for power IMO... it was designed for rich kids to put on their car, and say they have boost even though they're getting dick for power out of it lol.

And yes, I know, I picked up the whole kit used for $500... and I'm regretting it every day ;)
