I bought a GT2871r "s14 style" 52 trim .86 exhaust T25 flange. Here is a link where i found out that the 2871r turbo was being put into a t25 housing..

I'd like to know people's thoughts on this. Says "460hp" turbo setup but i think people will be lucky to get little over 400hp. I will have it running in a couple weeks on my sr20. Got to break in the motor, so i will post dyno in a month or so. Seems restricting with housing but unique with stock look. I want a sleeper so.. What you all think!?

Ok here is the deal. There are 4 different 2871's. Ranging from 400-475hp. They are all capable of doing at least what is advertised. Get the part number on the metal tag on the center housing and either post it here or lookit up on the garrett website. It will tell you all the details. Regardless, if it is a true garrett turbo you are in for a good time! They can be a little laggy compared to a gt28r or disco potato but they hit hard......and carry all the way to 7k no prob.
