T25 to 14b swap
 

how much of a change would it be to swap out my T25 for a 14b? the flanges are the same right? but would it sit in there right? would i just have to weld a flange on the end of the charge pipe? or would i need to rerun it? does anyone have a T25 and a 14b that they could put side by side and take pictures of?

Re:T25 to 14b swap
 

The flanges arent the same and neither are the wastegates. The oil feed line on the t25 doesnt use a bango type like the 14b it uses a screw in type thing. Also the air outlet on the t25 is at a different place than the 14b so you will have to change your charge piping a little bit.

---- that then, i guess i'll stick to a t25

Re:T25 to 14b swap
 

its not that bad. You just need a new wastegate and make your piping a little different.

Re:T25 to 14b swap
 

why would i need a new wastegate? they are internal. do you mean an actuator?

on top of that i'd need a new feed line.

and i'd need to ---- up m beautiful chargepipes.

I wish I had gone with a 14b from the beginnin but now that i havn't i'm confident i can make the t25 setup work well. and when I outgrow the turbo eventually, i'll upgrade it to a t28 or a big T28

Re:T25 to 14b swap
 

As a DSM owner I'd say skip the t28/bigt28 and go right to a t3 hybrid of your liking.

Re:T25 to 14b swap
 

but a big T28 bolts right up to the stock location right?

Re:T25 to 14b swap
 

You drive a 2G DSM? Then ya.. its a bolton.

Would still urge any 2G owner to get a T3 mani and go from there, shrug.

i drive a 6g civic coupe. with a single cam vtec 1.6L monster. wouldn't a big T28 be a good size turbo for me? or am i mistaken?

Re:T25 to 14b swap
 

probably, but for the money you would spend on one you could get something else (t3) that could do the job for less
