Just out of interest is there much difference in spool between the T25g and S15 turbo on a well mapped redtop sr as I am thinking of upgrading to one??
What revs does it start spooling at and when is it at full boost?

i fitted 1 to my car last week and they was an unreal differance well worth the change imo...

someone tag this thread with "turbo model numbers".. or whatever you think. I'm after adding 2 already. Can see these numbers being searched and very useful.

"s15 or 180sx?" is a useless tag!

wow so my turbo is nearly maxed out at .8bar cause i am making 245bhp with just a road tune..........the t25g can handle a good bit more than 250bhp
