So I looked around and didn't find exactly what I was looking for, so I'll leave this up to you guys. I'm new to the dsm scene, so this is a little out of my league

I'm currently running the stock t25, and it bit the dust. So before I bolt on a stock replacement, I was wondering if there is another choice that simply bolts up as a stock replacement. I'm looking for for a conservative 12-15lbs of boost, and don't mind a little slower spool time than the t25. I know I can buy another t25 and boost controller, and get the psi I'm looking for, but I'd rather not max it out. So just looking for some ideas
 
Is say to with a 14b or 16g. The good thing about going that route is you can upgrade esier to like a 20g if you dont like the power of the 16g...i think the big t28 is the biggest you can go without having to change your mani and route kit...dont quote me on that though

A 14b and a 16g will bolt up to to stock manifold but need an install kit. You can even make a 20g fit up to a stock manifold with a bolt on housing

You can use the stock manifold with tons of turbos. Pretty much anything from the T25 to an HX40 will bolt up. With the right parts of course. The intercooler route will change though depending on the location and "firing" direction of the turbo. The T25/T28 points towards the passenger side, the 14b/16g points upward and requires a J-pipe, and most everything else will point downward.
 
Yeah what i meant to say is with the install kit if you go the 14b/ 16g turbo you can go larger without having to change anything but the turbo like the 20g turbo. that bolts right onto the 2g install kit along with the 14b and 16g...I know with the t28 you don't need anything since it will bolt onto your stock setup however, I'm not sure after that what you need to change if you want to go bigger LOL...I guess I was just saying it's easier to go slightly bigger from the b/g series over the t series LOL...but again that why I said don't quote me since I'm still only running a small 16g. I haven't looked into going larger yet. I ended up going with the small16 over the t28 LOL :D
