Aright, i just ran into a friend of mine at the mall 2day after work. The first thing that he tells me (knowintg that i have a 240), "is do you want a trubo?" IM like, do fat ppl want to be skinny, do ppl in hell need AC? Hell yeah! The trubo is brand new BUT, it's for an S13 blacktop SR20 motor. I have the stock KA24E turbo which will be havily modified with rebuilt parts. The thign i want to know is, well this trubo work with my car? This probably is a dumb question considering it's just the trubine and not the full trubo set-up.:help quick. im buying the turbo, wastgate, and timer, next tuesday. like i said everythying is brand new.

I'm not up on the SRs stock turbos, but either way, a T25 is WAY too small, and a T28 is just too small.

The turbine housings would choke the big 2.4 liter and kill any chance at decent power.

Smallest I'd EVER consider using is a T3 like the one from a Z31 300ZX - Turbine is a Stage I wheel with .63 A/R, and the compressor can handle 13-15psi on the 3.0liter, so it's great on the 240SX. Spool by 2200-2500, and you can use it for probably up to 250rwhp.

Hope that helps - Brian
