How well do they hold boost for you at the higher RPM ranges? I recently bought one and I'm hoping this will be an ok turbo for drag and on the streets. What do you guys think?

Thanks

gotta be specific on what car/motor setup it's going on.

Well im puttin it on my car (D16Z6) but any D series in general.

*Boostwerks*

They are great for low RPM power, but for high RPM, a 14B is by far better.

I drove with a T-25 on my ZC running 10psi for about a year. It was fun, but it is really disapointing when the power dies around 6000K.

IMO, I would rather have a quick spooling straight T3 setup.

M.A.R.C.

like mine... weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

yah my T3 flows pretty good (T3 .60 a/r compressor, 60 trim/ .48 a/r turbine)

it's not the least laggy turbo, but it holds all the way to redline. right now i have it running of a TiAL wastegate w/o a boost controller and it spools up 6.5psi by like 4k rpm. When i put a manual boost controller on... i was seeing 8psi (what it was set at) by like 3k rpm. I think for a D16 the T3 60 trim is a good turbo. not too laggy, but it still flows decently... a lot more than t-25's and more than 14b's but a lil less than small 16g's

Ohh what kind of hp are you putting down? I want 12psi all the way to redline on my D. That's the goal. I dont know if the T25 will let me tho lol. ****, I just bought the damn thing too. luckily it was cheap. Ah well ill toss it on and see how it does.

I would look into a T3/T4 with like a .48 a/r turbine to get a quick spool.

M.A.R.C.

I made 165whp/140tq @ around 5-6psi
this was with a stock cat and 2.5" downpipe and 2.5" catback, no boostcontroller (woulda helped spoolup time).

here's the dyno

****, that's nice........
