Default nissan sr20 turbo on a ls

hi all i jus picked up a integra for a really cheap price and i am trying to build a junkyard turbo setup for it.. i kno about turbos and the parts i need since i have had 2 turbo integras in the past. I am posting to find out if the t25 for the nissan sr20's is too small for a ls motor.. i want somethin that puts me in the 220-250 whp range and im sure the t25 would spool up pretty quick. i am inquring about this turbo since i got it for free. thank you all help is appriciated

I personally think it's too small. I read somewhere (I forgot where), that at 200whp, it's pushing that turbo to the limit. Don't know if it's true or not.

heh, no. The bluebird, while the motor is transversely mounted, is an AWD car, much like the Avenir and it's other transverse FWD turbo counterpart, the pulsar GTiR.

The bluebird T25 is smallish. I think 250whp would be absolutely maxing that thing out. I'm not sure I'd run it on an LS myself, but, it's your car, you can do what you want with it.

I'd run a small T3 for your goal, allowing growth for the future via a new turbo without having to buy a new manifold.

The blue bird is the same as the us market altima and it has one of the smaller Sr20 T25 which is the same as the CA18 T25

except that the SR20DET powered bluebirds were AWD.

so does anyone think this thing can put out about 220 at the wheels at maybe 10-11 psi cuz im sure that'd b a nice lil daily commuter powerband.. im guessing full boost 2500-6000 and then fall on its face maybe....but im not gonna rev up to redline everytime anyways.. like i said im sure it'll b more fun then a ls Na.. i had a greddy turbo ls before and i was running 7 psi on it and thats kinda the power im looking for.. it was a fun lil car.. any input would b good.. or do people thing a 14b would b better for the power

220whp at 10 or 11psi? No. Maybe the T28 from the GTiR, but not one of the sr T25's.

Maybe 15psi.
