well i dropped my car off at my tuners a few days ago and he tells me my stock t25 just took a shit, (i told him 16psi was to much). what do you guys recommend as a cheap new replacement. im tired of dumping money in this thing.

gostrider · 05-16-2014, 06:53 PM

240's are money pits..buy another car

az_240 · 05-16-2014, 06:56 PM

i dont mind spending money, here and there, but holy shit lately it has been pumping me dry.

unometeeter · 05-16-2014, 06:58 PM

what do you guys think about the isis t25/t28 replacement i can buy a new turbo cheaper than a almost 20yr old used one. reviews seem to be pretty good.

az_240 · 05-16-2014, 07:01 PM

Stick to Garrett when it comes to bottom mount. You'll likely be replacing that isis turbo in no time.

You can find HKS GT25s for dirt cheap these days if you're looking for a relatively cheap upgrade.

Also, fire your tuner. Everyone and their mother knows a t25 is no good at 16lbs

Find a used JDM BB T-28 with a good looking wheel for $300~ shipped. Keep boost around 14psi or less and it will outlast the engine, maybe.

az_240 · 05-21-2014, 07:22 PM

^Good luck finding a known good one at that price even without the wastegate.

hatchtastic · 05-21-2014, 07:30 PM

There is a local guy, az, that has a very good looking t28 for 450$ with an hks wastegate

az_240 · 05-21-2014, 10:20 PM

^that's me! haha

ultimateirving · 05-21-2014, 11:07 PM

The Isis turbos are decent for the price and come with a year warranty

jr_ss · 05-22-2014, 07:37 AM

Kinugawa has good turbos at an economical price point and from what I hear, have very good customer service. I would purchase from said company before I ever bought an I-shit or Godcrap turbo.
