What is the difference in turbos, Say between a garrett T3 and a T25?
Size? Which is smaller or puts out more power?

you ahve much learning to do young one! READ READ READ. and know that allmost every question that you ask is going to be specific to one setup or another, so you really need to know whats going on. There are allot of good sites to find out about turbos. or you can get the book Maximum boost by Corkey Bell. thats a great source allso. try out some of these links www.howthingswork.com i think that they explain flow rates and volumetric efficiency, thats the KEY to what turbo is going to make the most power. look over at www.homemadeturbo.com they use the t25 i believe and i know that they use the t3, there some cool guys and have a FAQ page that can answer some questions that you may have. i hope that this helped you a bit

damn flamenco, it was just a simple question, if you had the time to post a stupid answer, you had the time to post the right one, unless you don't know the answer either. I'm sure he'll go spend the money on the book, to find out his question.

you can find it on the net but you guys can also throw him a bone here!!

t is a housing larger the housing larger the number

think of t25 as t2.5
and t3 as t3.0

t25 spools fast and has a loss of productivity at high rpms good for low reving cars......not us....
t3 good for daily drivers , lil lag not much good for ls and b16

hybrids... thats your quest learn them and stages of wheels and compressor maps and ect....
but there is SOME help for you.
