I found this site whilst looking at 20vt turbo's, It seems very decent, and from what I gather, With a FMIC, SIP, Exhaust etc Then a remap will be 320+BHP, Bargain if so!

Here

Interesting. Does the gt25 give boost low down or later on?

Certainly, but what a way too 300bhp? I may be utterly wrong in my find,

However you can't ignore the cost.

Isn't this a T25 flange turbo?

Will it need a new exhaust manifold as well?

On the surface it looks like a pretty good deal. However, it's 600 Euros for a Chinese knock-off turbo. It's not quick to spool either. It really is pot luck on whether these turbos last, I have seen four fail out of six.

No, It has no mention of it being Garrett, To me it could be worth a punt on a £1000 coupe, Not alot to lose if it fails!

And if it works..... Deal!

Decent service from this company. I know of a big power coupe using a turbo from this company and no problems.

It's good for a none ball bearing turbo smile would like to see the difference with a genuine gt3082r (gt3040r)
