Default How hard would a 2.0 wheeze a TDO5-12A/8 out

I got one for free, just needs an exhaust side. It feels good bearing and play wise. cool to run, or is it going to be a hair dryer on a 3sge? I was going to run an hx25, but the price is right on this.

I'd say sell it, get atleast this much:

And use that money towards the hx

I drove a conquest and it hit 10 psi instantly, died off in the end... was nice down low but up top it completely sucked....

it's not a conquest turbo, it's off a 98ish GSX. part number '49178-01730', or whatever. might not wheeze in the same range.

Those years I think ran ~15 flats with that turbo, I'd say go big... what do hx25's come off of specifically? I'll look when I go to the junkyard again wednesday

12a's are conquest turbos. T25's came on 95-99 dsms but had the mitsu 6cm exhaust housing fitted to them.
The outlet of the compressor on the t25 has a 90deg bend, the 12a does not.

Both are too small for a 2.0 in my opinion.
