I think so yes

On my sr20 I get full boost at 4000rpm with a 0.63 housing

Just double check you may be able to put the exhaust housing of your old turbo on it should just swop over just check the wheel sizes

Thanx guys

I disagree, a standard non BB T28 from a S14 has a .64 turbine housing and spools only slightly later than a S13 T25

now i am confused - it's not spooling correctly so i'm starting to think there is too litle exhaust gas to drive the new turbine... what else can cause it not to spool?

S14 produces more exhaust gas because it is a 2l....

I should probably have been more specific...a S14 T28 on a CA18DET spools only a couple hundred rpm later than the standard T25.

So it should work... Let me give the guy who has to dyno it for me a call tommorrow and see what he has to say.

Here are your pics





I've never compared my T28 to my T25 like this, but if you can wait till the long weekend I can compare with my spares from the two.

thanx so much.

S13 T25 vs S15 GT28R

Arno, your new turbo should work well here, albeit a bit later in the rev range.

I suspect the pre tension on your waste gate actuator is not set correctly. Do you have pre tension on the waste gate flapper valve ?

If you do then the turbine side is rather large . Having said this , once the turbo starts feeding on itself it should really wack into boost up to the waste gate setting.

I would not blame the turbo at this stage, look for the problem elsewhere..

I still go with wategate pre tension..

I used to run a TB2804 which is the turbo from a GTiR T28 with 0.86 exhaust.

Mods were dicktator exhaust and filter full boost was at 4000rpm nothing before but held all the way to the redline

Hi BigKriss, I left the actuator as it was from the factory, I have to stretch it about 4mm before it goes over the waste valve shaft. should I put more tention and try again.

That is even bigger than mine, was it on a CA18?
