14b holds up a lil better in the higher rpm range and the t25 offers a lil more power in the lower rpm range.

Try Searching if you have to bump yourself 4 times.

If your car is a daily driver and you don't plan on boosting more than 12 psi the T25 would work well. If you plan on going to the track every once in a while and boosting over 12 psi the 14b would work well. I'm sure you would be happy with either one though.
