I was told to get a T28
I went to TEC turbo engineering corp. In Golden, and was told that I should get a t28. He told me this would support 290 hp and spool around 3200 rpm. I was quoted at $750 for the turbo and $340 for an HKS manifold. Does this sound like a good way to go?

Re: I was told to get a T28 (bryan305)
What motor is this going onto? The T28 is off the SR20DET Silvia 95+, correct? If they are good for that car, it should be good for most cars. They can support around 320 hp. But once again we need to know which car to give a better answer.

Re: I was told to get a T28 (bryan305)
Currently I know of two T-28 on stock applications:
Nissan silvia s14/15 Garrett T-28
Newer Nissan Pulsar GTI-R Garrett T-28
From my previous research, the pulsar T-28 is a slightly larger turbo than the T-28 than from the silvia. But the Silvia T-28 is ball bearing where the Pulsar is not. Although I have yet to see a T-28 on a B18a/b, I would think it would be one of the best turbos for a street application. Good balance between spool time and overall power. Contact TurbochargedSER on the board, he can get you a Brand New Garrett T-28 with newer model Pulsar specs from somewhere around the $650 range, he always knows alot about nissan turbos since he is a nissan man

Re: I was told to get a T28 (bryan305)
The HKS manifold has a T-25 flange. It will allow Garrett T-25/28 to bolt to the flange. It wont allow you to bolt a T3/T4 to it. On a side note. If you ever want to upgrade to a bigger turbo, your best but will be a HKS GT25 which has a T-25 flange is a monster turbo (someone correct me if I am wrong about the GT series model).

Re: I was told to get a T28 (lshatchturbo)
But I think all the HKS manifolds with T25 flanges are "JDM" turbo flanges which differ from the US turbos. That's what I've been reading here anyway.

Re: I was told to get a T28 (mplex2000)
The manifold for T25 will fit T28, they both look alike and I believe shares a lot of same characteristic, including numbers of blades and etc...
it's the way the blades are anlged is the difference of the two, I have seen them both, at an instant they look like the same turbo..

Re: I was told to get a T28 (Flamenco-NA)
From what I have heard all garett turbos bolt up to the same manifold??? T series. From what I know the ball bearing T-28 commonly found on pulsar gtirs break all to often I would strongly reccomend another turbo, get a t3 with a small exhaust housing say .60.

Re: I was told to get a T28 (Flamenco-NA)
Right, and the 14B, 16G, etc etc will also bolt to T25 manifold, BUT....
The turbo to manifold flange is apparently different on US and Japanese turbos. I read that the HKS manifolds use the Jap flange so a T25 from the US will not bolt up to the HKS manifold.
Now I don't know if that's true, but I think someone on here bought an HKS manifold for a T25 and it did not worth with a T25 from an Eclipse.

Re: I was told to get a T28 (mplex2000)
As earlier stated:
At first glimpse a T-28 looks just like the 25... a lot of DSM owners seem to be moving to them in my town. i think mostly because at first glimpse it looks stock
T-28 flows 620cfm, obviously due to its larger exhaust/compressor wheels. its really efficent from the flowcharts ive seen.. like >75% @ 14psi which is pretty nice for such a small lil guy. T-25 just chokes on efficency in comparison.
RRE actually even sells a 'big bore' T-28 for even more flow for like 750.00 i think

Re: I was told to get a T28 (GimpyAccord)
Just a lil' info. The T28 is a T3/T25 hybrid. HKS GT25/28 are T4/T25 hybrids. A straight T3 will be better than a T28 since it gives you room to build and you can easily upgrade to a T4/T3.

And a side note, the t28 on a b18a will be an AWESOME street machine. Quick spool with a nice topend. You will love it.
And since its a new turbo, it will mount to the HKS manifold just fine. (ie they will make you a jdm style t28 ie a real garret) (the garret t25 on the eclipse is custom to mount to a mitsubishi style flange)

OH I live in JDM land so you mean to say you guys some how managed to get different turbo's under the same names, why don't they leave well enough alone?

Re: I was told to get a T28 (liam821)
*so what you guys are saying is that if I got the T28 the only up grade turbo is the GT30?
*If i got the T3 then i could upgrade to the t3/t4 or larger.? right?
*the HSK mainfold for the Bseries will only except the t25,t28 and GT30 ????

Re: I was told to get a T28 (Charlie)
The HKS mani will not accept a GT30 without modifications!
Straight T3, T4/T3, GT28, GT30, straight T4 are larger than the T28 (T3/T25 hybrid).

Re: I was told to get a T28 (Dee)
TEC definately knows their ****. I'm sure that turbo and quote included custom specs on the turbo for your application.
I say go for it, the turbo will spool really fast and still make power way up top too I'm sure.

Re: I was told to get a T28 (bryan305)
The T28 from a Pulsar GTiR can easily support 300 whp. I have seen 321 whp out of a Pulsar GTiR T28. They are awesome turbos. Quick spool and great power. Youw ill not run out of turbo up top. The Silvia S13 turbo is a T25 which is smaller and can only support ~235 hp. The S14 T28 can support ~260 hp. The S15 T28 is a ncie unit, but is hard to find. It cn support ~285 hp. The S14 & S15 T28's are ball bearing whereas the Pulsar GTiR T28 is non Ball Bearing. Here are the specs to the Pulsar GTiR T28:
T3 Compressor Housing
60 Trim Compressor Wheel
.86 A/R Turbine Housing
76 Trim Turbine
You can also send the exhaust housing to Extrude Hone to help with spool and get more flow. I carry the Pulsar GTiR T28 in stock for $650.00. These are Brand New Garrett T28's. Email me @ louisanaya@hotmail.com for more info. They will bolt up to any Greddy (SOHC), HKS, or APEXi (SOHC) manifold since they all have a standard T25 flange.

Re: I was told to get a T28 (TurbochargedSER)
1.2~1.5bar of boost is used to produce 320whp on SR20DET. A 57 trim AR.60 T04E/T4 O trim AR.40 that I setup for a friend's 180SX made 298whp at only .7boost on an untuned engine. Yes, the GTiR turbine is awesome but a used GTiR turbine sometimes cost more than a new T4/T3 that has loads more potential.

Re: I was told to get a T28 (Dee)
damn this is a good post... keep the info comming.
*so if i wanted to upgrade my greddy kit i could just get the T28?
*will the piping still remain the same, or do i need to get larger piping for more flow?
*The T28 has a external or internal w/g?
*how is this compared to the Greddy 18G turbo? (sool time, topend power, size)
