i`m interresting in change the stock t25 to a gt28r on my ca18det,

but thats a matter of money so it would take some time to get the money to swap the turbo

so my question is has anyone a vid of an gt28r charged ca18det

to kill the time until ive got the money or to see if it`s even worth (probaly yes)

i know its a stupid, selfish, boring ...... question, but i`m realy interrested in it like
how does a s13 punch with this turbo (my neighbor bought a escort cosworth, need definatly more punch), how fast does it spool and so on,
especialy how does it spool

thanks

p.s:
i´m a noob

AND I´M DAMN PROUD TO BE A NOOB!!!!!!

and yes i know i need other stuff too not just the turbo, like 550 injectors, fuel pump, power fc, Z32 afm ......

I just dont think its worth it, I mean to spend that kind of money and get not really a ton of more power, sure its still gonna be fun, and I havent done much research on them but is that the one rated for around 310? you never will usually see all of what its rated for, so your looking at somewhat below that, and all the upgrades you will have to make anyway such as what you mentinoed It would be wise to save a little more for a nicer turbo, Id say a cheap alternative would be a topmount variety wehre you can make some serious power but you will be sacrificing some spool time, and with the selection of the GT series, it seems that you are looking for a nice spool. IMO spending 800 or whatever they are, is not worth it for the power your getting, sure 300 hp is serious but I have a feeling you will want more. at least this is what happened to me.
