way too small in my opinion. T25 just dont flow worth anything at all. U will never reach 12.8's on a T25 turbo. I would go with Precision SC 50, T3 60 trim, T3/T4 50 trim, .48 Ar, or possibly a reworked T28. All of these turbos will have good boost response on the street and are fairly inexpensive turbos.

a 60 trim T3 with big housings would be the smallest I would go. T25s suck even on D series IMO. It might be fun for a while, but having a honda that wants to rev to 7or 8 grand but only pulls hard up to 6 is pretty frustrating

What compressor trim is the t25? A 70 trim would be just fine for 9psi w/ic. Not the most efficient @ about 71% peak, but it would spool quick and make power past 6k. Not a 70 trim? Too small. Oh yeah, the motors' in a rex so you can go smaller than a heavier car anyway.

yes but does it run 12's????? Thats what he is looking for. I am sure it runs fine, and I am sure its quick, but too small for the power he wants to make.
