I am wondering if anyone in the San Diego/LA area would have a T25 turbo that they have laying around and let me borrow it for mock up to see if the stock manifold will work for my build?

build is found here:zer...hread

I am trying to find out if the stock manifold will work, or if i am forced to purchase a top mount manifold. I don't have a stock turbo or any turbo besides a t3 turbo to mock up.

The turbo doesn't have to work, it just needs to have both the compressor side and the exhaust side. If there is someone out of the area willing to send me their stock turbo (if you don't need it) I would pay shipping both ways.

I don't want to purchase a turbo just to find out that I need to go to a top mounted turbo... Thanks guys!!!

How much of a hurry are you in? I'll be pulling my stock CA T25 soon and won't be needing it for a while. Eventually it MIGHT go on the wife's Miata (I'm still trying to talk her into it), but I won't pull it off for a couple of weeks yet.

I can wait. I still have alot to do before I get to that point. Finish welding my framerust proof and paint the frameinstall suspension piecesinstall cab and finish custom firewall( brake booster/steering column install)

THEN I will be ready to mount the turbo

I would really appreciate it though. I would hate to have to buy a turbo to find out that it won't fit.
