don't use a t25 its too small...
use a T3 60 trim
www.turbocalculator.com
has them for a reasonable price

log manifold go to www.jgstools.com/turbo

Would a T25 really be too small if you only wanted 6psi? Small turbo like that would spool really freaking quick too.

turbocalculator.com has been down for months, I think they went out of business. And I wouldn't point anyone else to that sticky of yours until your correct all the errors that I pointed out in it.

I'm glad you're finally recommending the T3 60 though

Nate, the T25 will be just fine at a low boost level like that, they're used stock on the Eclipse which has a larger engine. However, you'll make more power with a larger T3 turbo at a lower temperature, but it won't respond as quickly.

However, the turbo in that link is not a T25, it's a T3 45 I think, it has a .48 turbine and .42 compressor.

how much of a difference in response time are we talking about here between the t25 and t3? and will the t25 fit the log style manifold?
