I'd like to get a turbo that spools quick but also has power to redline....I read a lot about the t25/d16 combo, but some people say it stops making power after 5500+ RPM's while others still make power. I also read about t3's making lots of top end power but took a little longer to get going(again I focused on d16 fitment). ....My goal is 200"ish" HP....and the car would rarely get to the track to race....mostly in-town driving. Would a basic t25 or basic t3 be the best option? Thanks.

super 60 T3 or 28R should be perfect for you. Get a 28RS if you can afford it, or use a Mitsubishi 16g if you want a wonky inlet flange, but a cheap turbo.

 

for 200ish whp, a t3 42/48 will suit your needs. it'll pull to redline and spool up fast
or a t3 super 60 (it'll have a nicer top end).

most junkyard turbos (factory dsms and such) will achieve 200hp on a d16...

 

I'm running a TD04 14G and I love it. Only Jesus blowing into the turbo could cause it to spool faster.

I managed a 13.7 w/ bad clutch and street tires.

For daily driving it kicks ***. Fast spool, it screams like a banshee, and the look on the faces of fat chicks in Monte Carlos as you blow by them is enough to make anyone smile.

How close to a t25 is the TD04?

I'm not really sure. It's bigger than a WRX turbo by a bit.

I'd say you can probably cover the compressor housing with your hand.

 

Nissan RB20 turbocharger.........thats what I have on my car.

Spools really quick and has good top end.

T3 .60/.48, GT28r or 28RS

 

im going for the 14b...a lot of people make home made kits with it. same td04h turbo from mitsubishi's. thinking of what...250hp after i rebuild my motor? maybe running one bar will make 250hp on a d16z6.

 

I'm going with a T3 .60 trim with .48 A/R turbine (.60/.48) on my y7/y8 mini me setup. They spool fairly quickly and will make power throughout the sohc redline.
