CTR cams with a T25? jesus.. as soon as vtec engauges the torque is gonna fall on its face because the turbo is going to fall off quick.
T25 is to small for a b16a period, a t25 is almost to small for a d16a6.

Run at least a T3 .48/.60. You can go for the T3 .48/.42 but it will be on the small side! Im running the T3 .48/.60 on stock b16. Hits 8psi on 2nd gear by like 3.5k and stays put all the way to redline, aka boost does not drop off. Pulls pretty strong but I'm sure it definately does not pulls as strong as the T3/T4 in the high end. Just depends on what you want. I wanted more boost down low. Some prefer boost in the higher RPM's.
Just stay away from the DSM T25's and 14bs if you have a B-series engine, PERIOD!

I liked the T3 on my B16. 48/60 made 237 on 8psi whith torque tapering off on the top end.
63/60 made 272 on 14psi with torque also dumping on the top end.
If your on a budget, Id say youll be happy with a used T3. But you can find pretty decent deals on used t3/4's ya know.
