Turbo upgrade help

[Bjeezy01]

I am running the stock turbo(T-25) on my 96 FWD Talon TSi. I wan't to do an upgrade. I have done a lot of reading. And basicaly I cant find any really diffrences aside from spool lag between turbos. I was wonder what other people have ungraded to...why, and what else did you "NEED" for it to work. Not things you added couse you wanted to, but actualy things that you NEEDED for that turbo or kit. What kind of proformance did you get? PSI, HP, whatever you got. I just want to upgrade, and need help on deciding which rout to take.

Dont worry about BOV, or FMIC, all that is being, or already is upgraded. I am just talking about the turbo, and all parts needed for that turbo. like intakes, downpipes, problems with mounting, drilling holes, running lines...etc. What did you do, why, and what did you get out of it?

best upgrade would probably be a t28,direct bolt on.

Does the 16G or big 16G bolt on?

please search. 16g and t28 are the best for your application. I have a 16g that is ported and has a 34mm wastegate flapper on it. Love it im running 11psi now b/c i have stock exhaust. It pulls harder than the damn t25 at 15psi and its only at 11psi. I got my 16g from www.turbochargers.com Problems.. well if you dont have a dremel get one. YOu will have to dremel 2 little connecters away so the feed line fits, thats if you use the hardline, get the SS line much easier. Umm you have to bend the 2g water lines to fit. No big deal just torch them till red and bend. Thats about it. Good luck also here is a link to my review.
