Depends on what you want out of it, i had a t25 and it spooled up pretty fast but you can't usually go much over 10 psi and power started to drop at 6k too

 

Wow talk bout newbs flaming newbs!!


t25 will be fun for about 2 weeks and then you'll wish you went bigger!

 

wow dont know why you sold it but hey i have a t25 at 5.5 pounds and runnin 14.5 in a quarter mile with a ek hatch...sorry never had it dyno though

 

just to offer a different opinion:

i have a t2small on my z6, running about 15psi... which drops to 12 by redline

but anyways, i like it. fast spool, which is what i wanted. if i can fix the boost problem ill be quite a happy camper.

 

i am gonna be running a t25 setup @ 12psi on my a20a2. i was told its not gonna hold above 4500 rpms, my car only reves to 6200 rpms, the car is a 12v 2.0 iron block so i say it can hold the boost. i really dont see the motor pushing the air flow of a d16, or a b series so i hope the boost holds clost to 6k. this will be my first turbo setup so i say the t25 will be fine.

 

Problem is that turbo would be a heat pump at that boost level!!!

 

I'm pretty sure that there is a difference between Canadian and U.S T25 turbos, and I'm thinking the U.S version is smaller because you guys are really agianst the thing. Mine has the round exhuast inlet whereas the U.S version I think has the square, if I'm correct. My ls pulls really good right to 7000, no fall off. I am only at 10psi but I'm averaging mid 13's. When I figure out how to post pics (I'm a total computer ***, and I don't meen noob) I'll get them up.

 

15psi is pretty close to the stock boost level on the thing. something tells me mitsu isnt so dumb that they would spec a turbo that would be out of its efficiency range on a stock car. in fact, back when i was choosing turbos i managed to get a peek at the compressor map. it may not flow TONS of air, but that doesnt make it an inefficient turbo

 

thanks for the input think ill stick to the T-25 untill i tweak the setup and from then and more cash saved up will upgrade probably to a T3 or see into a T-28 or sumething along those lines. Thankz people

in transition from :1 2

 

if you end up not liking the t25, you can always get a FP big t28:
