I really want to get a t25g , i have seen in some pics that some of them come with the slip style housing(not the 2 bolt flange ) for the air intake so it fits better in my car, does anybody know in what motor they came on? Thanks

Hey that's odd, it doesn't have the two bolt flange there. It's built-in like the CA T25!



Heres a picture of mine dude if its any help. Redtop SR20 T25G on the left CA18 T25 on the right.

If everything else is the same (like the physical specs), i'd do it so i wouldn't have to buy an adaptor.



Here's one. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ories

i got the turbo and a tubular manifold for the ca, i just dont see why do i have to clock the turbo..., is it only for the stock ca manifolds? im very confused, it seems to have enough room for all the lines and intake adapters without touching.. here are some pics i took with my phone:



thanks for the help

Try putting the outlet peice on it, it looks like you will need to clock it a bit for the clearence between the maifold and the outlet.

I just installed the same turbo with same type of manifold, you should be fine the way it is. I had to clock mine and it sat just about the same as yours is now.

yeah i couldnt hold it perfect and take a pic at the same time but it doesnt touch, if i assemble everything together and nothing touch i shouldnt have to clock the turbo right?

ok so i installed the turbo and the only thing is that the turbo position is different, for people like me who have a custom turbo back, you are gonna have to refabricate your exhaust, but other than that if you have and ebay exhaust you sould be fine, i didnt have to clock nothing;
