Sup guys...i searched under fwd t25 before making this thread, so spare the flame....i have the option to buy a t25 off a fwd sr20, a pulsar..for $100 to start my ka-t build...so i'm wondering if it'd be a problem if i were to use a fwd t25 on my ka24de? thanks

You may have to reorient the compressor housing, which can be a pain. It typically involves having to remount the waste gate actuator, and sometimes you can break the seal between the comp-housing and center bearing section when you rotate. Thats really not that good a deal in my opinion, RWD sr turbos can be had for the same price and let you avoid the hassle.

I'm wondering why you didn't use "Pulsar turbo" in your search parameters... Its kind of obvious. There is plenty of material available about this one.
