I wouldn't go with that. They look like ebay quality stuff to me.

^ +1 on that... I'd stick with tested companies if you want any kind of reliability/longevity.

I've been ka-t for like 6 months now and it's good times (only a t25 on 18 lbs.). Gonna be upgrading pretty soon, but this is more than enough to get my share of kills.

To be completely honest, I have no idea. I doubt I'll dyno this setup, but I'll be taking it to the track eventually so we'll see what kind of numbers I get there.

18 psi on a t25?? That's really pushing it with a small turbo.

agreed looks a lil ebayish to me too but then again i got all my stuffs off ebay or made it and mine works pretty damn good gotta upgrade the fuel and the clutch but thats it.


idk why i quoted lol but yeah im gonna take mine to the track soon and see what it does. before turbo i was averaging like 12.5 in an 1/8 so
if i can just get it in to the tens i will feel accoplished
