how much iis max without causing damage to the turbo? i wanna boost as much as i can get out of it without over boosting on the turbo.

 

I wouldnt push it over 14psi before getting a bigger turbo.

 

I thought those crazy DSM nukkas pounded them out to 19psi?

there was a guy that i know that had his t25 @20psi for a couple of months on a vxbottom end with a a6 head on it, so it was like 7-1comp.

 

not worried bout the motor not being able to handle it. i wanna kno how much the turbo can put out. i kno the motor can handle it. so ur friend did 20 psi with a t25? how long did it last =x

 

20 psi !!! wow.... I cudn't imagine it would last for very long.
But they are cheap so yeh, investing in a good size T3 for now would also do the trick

 

It depends on the motor you are using it on. 10 PSI on a D-series is a completely different thing than 10 on a B-series. Think about it - the pressure in the intake manifold is only what your motor isnt taking in. So the turbo will loose efficiency much faster on a motor that breaths harder.

 

my friend ran 22 psi on his talon when he wanted the new turbo, it developed a lot of shaft play and leaked oil into the charge pipes after about 2 weeks to a month....

 

what size engine do you have?? you can boost 20 psi on a 1 liter motorcycle engine or a 2.4 liter Tsx engine. but on the tsx engine it will have to flow way more to hold the boost. I say a t25 is way to small for any engine over 1.3 liters.

 

to small but comes stock on 2.0litre engines... upgrade time
