I made a wtb post, i think it was on Nico, and a guy e mailed me saying he has an SR t25 OEM turbo he will sell me for $200 no shaft play etc etc. He might be on here for all I know but as soon as I asked more in depth questions about where it came from he stopped responding.

A/R .80? :S

I had an S14 T28 and it was only .60, and my ca18 stocker was .48. Am I just a no0b or is this not a stock SR t25 turbo? If not, than what the hell is it?

e mail back:

“The stock T25 compressor is a 0.80 A/R housing. It is definately a t25.”

maybe I’m just dumb.
