does any one know roughly how much a stock garrett t25 turbo (fairly good condition) would cost? i have a blown one in my car already. need a new one. how much for brand new as opposed to used? does the t25 have a good boost?

 

Brand new is about $500

used $200

if you know where to get it .. you can get it as low as $100.

T25 can boost to 12psi MAX..over that the efficiency curve fails.

Everyone swaps it out for T28 or better.

 

just get t28bb turbo, much better. I picked up mine used in good condition for $250

 

does the t28bb bolt up the same as the t25?

No.

but can be fixed easily.

and you need new lines..

 

I would go w/ T28 like everyone suggests.

 

would a t25 ball bearing turbo be a waste of money? i guess it wuold right, i mean if i am gonna spend that kind of money, i should go for the t28 bb right?

 

right...

 

there's no T25bb.

T28bb from S15 SR.

Amen.

 

ok. good to kno. just so i am not lookin for something that doesn't exsist. how is the performance of the t28bb? ie good power through low rpm to high, olny good top end, only good bottom end? that kinda stuff.

 

It's a quick Spool Turbo..Kicks @ about 2500 RPM.

Good for 350hp MAX.

Dies at about 6500 RPM..shift then you should drop to about 3.5-4k..so the powerband is still there.

Must be nice to be spoon fed.


I wish I had that when I was learning..

 

lol... how do you know so much about when it spools and dies and stuff helghast?

 

hey isn't that y there are forums? to spoon feed the newbies. haha. there aren't too many people around my area that kno much about the motor. mostly everyone here is honda or toyota. i mean there are nissan guys here. but i am not sure if any of them even have a sr20, let alone know much about them.

 

are you kidding me..

In san Diego?

..you're not looking hard enough.

where in San Diego are you BTW?
I'm there almost every other weekend.
