How does this sound?
"SR20DET/CA18DET upgrade, street application. A/R 0.49
This turbo is designed for 1.6–2.0L engines and features a T25-size exhaust flange. This makes it ideal as an upgrade turbo for CA18-DET or SR20DET engines*. Rated at 280hp,A/C is 0.49. it is suitable for street performance applications. It features water cooling and a removable three-bolt exhaust flange.
Tested on a CA18 at *** Dyno, it produced 206kW at the wheels with 16psi of boost. The standard internal wastegate is designed to hold 11–12psi."
Its a GT28RS Ball Bearing turbo...

jirre pink fluff is like those pains when you wanna take a really nice k@k. Always pops up when you least want it!
The man is down in the dumps man!
cut him some slack, that turbo will do for what he is going for, he doesn't need some super maguber of a fat turbo!
Riekert that will do fine for you!

Well its basically a T28 plus its brand new. I can get a reconed T28 from a NZ s14... but how long will that last me? And I don't think the power will be that different...

yeah TMI is not a good thing! Experience is what counts...
Thus ask the people who have been through it all!

i've seen guys running t3/t4's on ca18's and it works for them.
and i've driven my ca18det without a turbo (it was installed but couldnt spin) so basically it was without a turbo at all!!!
they both worked. so what are your goals for the turbo? what do you expect to gain/lose from installing it?

wel there is one on my CA18DET and it works fine!
The rest of the guys with GT28RS turbos will most prolly confirm this!
