For those with MPINicks T25 Upgrade..

has anyone had any success with reusing the compressor housing and wheel from a T28 rather than machine the T25R housing to accept the larger wheel? I have access to a T28 with blown seals that would be a perfect donor for the hybrid..$40 for a balance....turbo upgrade for under $100 cdn....mmmm i hope it works.
 
Totally missed you wicked. The turbo was out of the car, and I said might as well make it a ****** beast if its going to go in. I looked at cars running a similar set up like focus and Dean's msp, and figured this wouldn't be a bad route at all and has plenty of potential once the motor is built too.

I don't blame you for goin with it,it's a good combo,and has good response for it's comp size,and a hell of a lot easier to install then a GT28RS.

but for those willing to go the extra mile for the GT28RS,they are NEVER sorry.

I will think MPNick is right on this just because the stock turbo OEM as is will make 250whp now with larger internals(gt28) it will probably make more than what it was originally designed for 250whp, I will think that once you do this upgraded t25r and dyno it you'll probably get less than 320whp unless you have a good mechanic.
okay now exactly who's talking out of their but cheeks-I have dyno'd my msp-w/mpi tuner fmic all charge pipes-throttlebody-motor mounts-bpv-cold air-mam 2.5" downpipe 1 hi flow cat and a 700.00$ manga flow muffler all mandrel bent hi flow exhaust piping-and i put out 218whp- so you are not thinking correctly if you think the stage 3 upgrade is going to push-320-330whp-ask focus -his car running a mam manifold-put out 326whp-w/10000.00 in mods on top of it-the stock mass air meter and mpi combo has been proven not to let u creat more than 330whp-ask to see dyno sheets-also by machining the stock it is unreliable-and will only last 15000 miles and u will be spending1100.00 all over again-i would know-kcuf focus
 
Sounds like you have a bad set-up. I made around 260-270whp on the stock set-up and around 310-320 on the Stage1 MpNicks turbo.

punctuation much?
 
ok,if you guys are blowing out the center section of the stock turbo,why do you think the stage one will last?

not trying to rip here,just piece of mind.
 
How is it piece of mind if you don't own the turbo?

Your right though, you know, of the what? 5+thousand Msp's we have had maybe 5-10 turbo failures that didn't relate to the wastegate. Everyone should go out and buy a GT28rs to make Wicked feel better about buying a turbo that has shown less potential than the one in question.

HAHAHAHAHAH Wow ZOOM I love you man!
I can't wait to get my Nick turbo! (thumb)
It will have to wait a bit but I just got 3500 in bonus money so maybe for Christmas the march towards mucho ponies can begin.
I don't care to be the fastest. I just want some good power with an MPI and an MPI Nick stage 1. Bang for buck. (first)DA WINNAR!!!
 
Oh God!! we got another internet expert!!! Please pull your head out of your ass and realize you suck or your car sucks, or both....

Please sell your car, I don't want people thinking I'm a dumbass like you...

So who is this really? I see 2 post counts and the first was in the MAM area. I think someone here is full of it or just made a BS username to post more BS, or has a butt buddy that wants to down talk other peoples stuff.

If you really made only 218whp, what boost was it at? If you this is real, then you can't tune for s***!!! I have seen the stage 1 put out 330whp at 15psi, so why the hell wouldn't it put out more???? And where do you get the stock turbo not being reliable after this? You have no proof here slick, there are people running this setup with close to those miles.....if they havn't hit it already!

Nick has never advertised the stock MAF supporting this power. That's why he has a larger MAF setup to support higher power levels. So why don't you post with your main account and quit hiding behind a bogus username! It's hard to believe you've been around here long enough to get all the stuff you have and never posted before until the unfulfilled orders thread in the MAM area.
 
damn. yall are gettin on this dude. I'll let everyone know how it feels compared to stock in about a month, I just gotta take off my turbo set-up this week and it's off to Nick.


And yea you really must have a bad set-up , stock MSP's w/ only the MPI are capable of 200+ HP with no other mods except the MPI.
 
well if he is running stock boost that number seems about right for the mods he had.

all of you guys need to dyno your car anr then we will race-the main-and your stock car w/ an MPI tuner will only create about 176whp at the wheels you stupid aasss-also how does an exhaust make your engine create more horsepower????how does a FMIC or an air intake create more horsepower?????or yet how does a shiny shifter or stereo make your car go faster??? you are all stupid....the is some periods for the spellchecker guy.........somemore or is it some more>>>>>....you engine is only built and designed to create hp raising boost or focing induction-will gain hp-but the block is only going to create so much. so your stock whp are all a bunch of small dick lies-and why cant you guys beat an sti-the only have 330 engine hp-think how muh hp you lose through awd-and yet you cant beat one-and you have 60 more hp
kcuf focus-kcuf bigg tim-and kcuf apocman-mpi dickryders
 
haha what a lame

by the way...does anyone here has a pic of the stock t25 msp turbine wheel or know the trim of it?
