Default This turbo or that one?

I have a DSM T-25 that I'm planning to use for a custom setup I'm working on. The only things left pretty much are the manifold, downpipe, charge pipes, and oil lines. I was considering selling this turbo and getting a T3. I considered this because will flow more and the flange is more popular. So... what should I do... keep the tiny T-25 or go with a T-3? Also would anyone want to buy a DSM T-25 in good condition (45k miles... no shaft play, clean.)? Also anyone selling a T3 in good condition smaller sized ones would be better.

T3. Only because eventually you will get sick of it and decide to buy a new turbo. At that time you would be happier with a T3/4 setup since you will have the manifold from that JYT.
Most people dont go with a mitsu type turbo when they upgrade, or even by new for that matter. Hell, even most DSM guys upgrade to T3 type turbos.

my thoughts too... i just can't find a damn t3 for a good price. everyone is into damn t3/t4's... i don't need osmething that flows that much... just something for a good street setup. ANYONE selling straight T3's?

I have a IHI RHB52W that I might be selling.....I am not sure what it flows...I have been told it is like a T3...but I know the flange is different so you would need to make some sort of adapter plate but if it is the flow you want then paying like 25-50 (guessing) for an adapter would be worth....

The turbo is from a Mazda 626 and the bearings were changed a few months back but it has only been used for like a month with new bearings...no shaft play....it hasa new acutor so the internal wastegate is now adjustable....I don't know what it is adjustable to but it is at least adjustable to 8 psi....

If you are interested or even you find what it flows (am interested for myself) give me a holler at reXem@shaw.ca
