Yup - I ran one for year or so. Really fun street turbo but I wanted/needed more. Stock lines will bolt up but you will need to bend them slightly to get them to fit perfectly. You may also need buy an oil return fitting as the GT series turbo fittings are different. ---

Running one on a ca, great turbo, doesn’t spool as fast as a t25, but the power doesn’t stop once it kicks in. HP limit is usually said to be about 300, although this changes depending on supporting mods… whether you go internal on the engine… or stay with external mods. Proper tuning helps alot too. Stock lines worked fine, I used a modified oil return line. Yeah, swapping a turbo whilst the engine is in the car will lead to hand cramps and bleeding knuckles. ---

oh come on, Chuck Norris doesnt have even have to get dirty when he wants a new turbo. he need only round house kick the turbo and it automatically installs itself. the car will always oblige and accept the replacement turbo out of fear of being struck by Mr. Norris’ beard. because as we all know, there is no chin behind Chuck Norris’ beard, only another fist. ---
