It's a t25 OR a t28. In my opinion look into the JGS turbo kit. It's $1700 and you need to add other items, mainly tuning and fuel but it's an established kit and reccomended by KA-T.org. The thing you need to do before you even attempt a turbo system is RESEARCH EVERYTHING. This means more than finding a sub-$1000 turbo kit. Learn how a turbo works, how an engine works, how to size things properly, etc. You don't go out and try to fly an airplane without some reading abd instruction. If you build a turbo motor and don't learn how it works I gurantee you will grenade your motor in under a year.
Also get the DE first and TRIPLE CHECK that the engine is refreshed and capable of supporting a turbo. If you have a KA with ****ty compression, blown head gasket, and burnt valves it's not worth buying a turbo kit anyway.
I've been in your shoes. Next turbo purchase you should make should be a book on turbo systems like Street Turbocharging by Mark Warner P.E. I got my copy at Sumitt Racing.
