t25 or t28?

[bobbyhill]

i was thinking about buying this turbo off ebay for my sr.the guy says it's a t28 ballbearing.is there anyway you can look at the pics he posted and tell it is a t28 and not a t25?here is the linkhttp://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...yment

Ask the guy for a pic of the turbin wheel and wastegate. A t28 has a divider between the wastgate and the outlet of the turbin housing.

i have an s15 BBt28 and it looks bigger than this for some reason. maybe its the angle, but I will say that even if it is a t25 at that price with an HKS Actuator it might be worth a shot. you could always get that money back out of it...assuming its in good condition...but I doubt its Ball bearing for that price...that would be a steal!

get a shot of the label.

did you win? i noticed tha auction is over

It has an offset pressure side, I would guess it is a T28, though I have no idea if it is BB or not.

[nzmoman]

doesnt the t28 HKS actuator have a curvature to it?

[jewbaca]

seems like a t25

Wow, that is the most uninformed, missleading, completely useless post I have ever heard.

The T25, while being used on DSMs, was also the factory turbo for the first two generations of the SR20DET, countless Volvo's, and a grip of Saabs, not to mention all the cars that used it that Ive never even heard of.

Secondly, it is NOT a piece of **** as you so maturely put it. Ive been using a T25 for almost 4 years, and I put more power and torque to the ground than many members using T28s.

Think before you speak.

PS, I call BS on your RB powered S14, Ill believe it when I see it.

very true. it may not be a 500 hp turbo, but it lasts long and it is reliable as crap. I have run 12's on a t-25 and surprised many larger turbos.
