theres a t25 turbo for sale on a local forum. its a t25 from a blacktop sr20, in pretty good condition for only $150. i want to go turbo in the future and it seems like a pretty good price but the only reason im hesitant is because its a small turbo for my ka, i would have liked to have gone with a t3 or t3/t4, but this t25 is pretty cheap.what should i do? and does anyone know how much a z31 t3 goes for?

yeah I'm pretty sure you'd get like instant boost response and the power would die completely by like 5500 rpms.

IMO waaay too small of a turbo for the KA. Smallest I'd go is a t3. You can find a used T3 from like a z31 or something for not too much. I could be wrong on that one but I think the z31 turbo is pretty damn good.
