I really have nothing to back this thought up, but I wonder if t25 failures stem from an oil restrictor? I converted my t25 feed line to a ss line without a restrictor (when I didn't know better), and it's been boosting fine at 18psi since.
...knock on wood...
Justin might know if that made a difference...
On topic I didn't like my t25 on my stock setup. I have been running an evo III 16g for about a year at wastegate pressure (about 9 psi) and I even liked that better than my t25. I preferred the mhi turbo even on a stock setup...
I just now upgraded my fuel finally and am starting to up the boost a little on the 16g and just think if it was the stock turbo... You wouldn't have to do a whole turbo swap to get relatively decent hp... I would have preferred the t25 to have never been on the car in the first place...
I am totally making my t25 into a lamp now after seeing this thread...
