What have you done to your MSP today?

the stock t25 is worthless after 8-9psi and thats where alot of guy blow there s***.. and trust me there is a huge difference in the gt28 and the gt25.. the only way you can't tell a difference in the turbo is if you keep it around stock boost.. and yes the 25 spools faster but it does not hold its powerband for nothing.. btw your crazy if your think the t25 is better to keep then upgrading to a gt28.. this argument is always ongoing.. half ppl say car will blow and half ppl say it won't... what ANY car comes down to is how well you car for it.. the supporting mods and a good tune... and thats a build or stock engine.. cuz in this world any can blow at any time

dude i've had a 28 on my car i know the differences between them. I don't know where you got your info about the t25 being worthless after 8-9 psi but you are sadly mistaken msp t25's max out around 15-16 psi. Also how do the t25's not holld their powerband? their might be some drop off in top end but it is nothing compared the the ms3 & 6's ko4. For a stock block protege making around 200whp i will definitely say that the 25 in my opinion is a better suited turbo then the 28rs. you're really not even tapping into the 28rs's power at that low boost.
 
put in my non fouler, was about to put in the TWM shifter bushings i had laying around for a year but didn't do it. Looks like they will be laying around for a little while longer..lol

to each his own and do some searching and more reading there are plenty of threads that show y the gt25 is no bueno.. and anyone who tries to run it over 10psi is askin for a whole lot of trouble.. and low boost?? u do realize i run 13-14psi on the gt28,, lemme put it this way if the gt25 is so great.. the y does everyone want to upgrade it right off the back?? and this is not only in the msp's.. and yeah your right if you wana keep your car at stock boost and only make 200hp then by all means keep the gt25 but if you wana make good reliable power trash it..

you will also find people that will say the same thing i do,and since when do you see everyone saying they want to upgrade to a 28? You obviously know nothing about the 25 is you're saying you cant make reliable power from it. Good luck running 13-14 psi for extended period's of time you must not know the inside of a fs real well. i'll be waiting for your zoom zoom boom thread to surface =)
 
ill be curious to see how my t25 performs with a t3, .64ar housing on it. seems to me that the compressor is fine, but the exhaust side really bungs up the motor with a tiny ar and t2 flange.
additionally, i want to know where you can get combination compressor wheels and housings to match.
Saw that atp turbo sells the 60mm compressor housing on the GT2560R by itself for $2xx something, but doesn't mention if the wheel is included.
of course, the mpinick turbo upgrade is real appealing, but i think at that price id just put it toward a 28RS.
 
Spent several hours today fishing parts of my coil packs out of the spark plug cylinders... ******* pieces of s*** are getting sent back.

13psi on a gt28 for more then 4 yrs now and i've gone thru three turbos :) n i run my car nice and hard all the time.. like i said to each his own :)
 
My autozone piece of s**** like to pop the rubber boot off the bottom into the head. Had to remove my valve cover more than once because of this.
 
It decided to disintegrate after being used for about 3 days... I went to pull them out today so I could check the plugs, and it fell apart. If I didn't have bad luck I would have no luck at all.

damn that sux.. what kind where they?? i need new coil packs again mine are misfiring :(
 
I'm not sure but they are called Original Engine Management #50087 on rockauto.com

don't buy them... ever. I ordered some Borg Warner or whatever from Pep boys they should be here tomorrow and they cost half as much.
 
damn i didn' know borg warner made packs for our car.. wonder how good they hold up..

nvm i did kno that damn i need a nap lol

Clever... so, you can call them "OEM" and its technically correct.
