Turbo Choice

So im in the market for a new turbo as my T25 on my S13 CA has play and seals are going...

Below is some prices I have collected:

1. Garrett GT28RS ( Disco Potato ) R11 500 ( Turbo Exchange )

* This would be my 1st choice, but unfortunately this is out of my budget for now.

2. GT28 Journal Bearing Turbo R4700 ( SpeedShop)

3. T28 R4100 ( SpeedShop )

4. T28/T3 R3500 ( Mr Turbo )

5. T28 R3600 ( Turbo Replacement KZN )

6. GT2876R R4500 ( Turbo Replacement KZN )

7. GT2871RS R4500 ( Turbo Replacement KZN )

I am leaning towards the GT28 Journal Bearing Turbo for R4700 from SpeedShop.

TD04H 15T or 18T

Mr turbo also has a tb28 thats around 3500 not a bad little turbo

Gary - where do u get those from? And i would need a custom made manifold?

How is the turbo's from Mr Turbo?

its not bad its just a china version of the t28

go for ball bearing always! difference is night and day

Agreed bb if you can afford it

Just remember BB is not serviceable and JB is. So if you considering any BB thats not from a reputable source, then a full replacement would be required compared to a strip and replace, should anything go wrong with the turbo. Jus my 2c
