OEM t25?
what cars came OEM with a t25? id like to get a t25 over a t3 but the t3seem far easier to come by in the junk yard. I want the t25 because i assume as it is smaller it will spool faster. am i misguided in this assumtion? what is the relative difference in t25 and t3 spooling (ie. where will the t3 begin to spool as compared to the t25?)

Anyway, in general it's a fine idea, there are a couple write-ups available, and we're here to help.
If you send it off, your looking at a chunk of change. I say wait for a known working turbo, or buy cheap with a rebuild in mind.

rebuilding is a bad idea if you dont know what you are doing.
The shaft is ballanced with the compressor wheel and you must take it apart to repair it.
So mark the compressor wheel and turbune wheel in relation to each other.
If a turbo is really bad (like the ebay link) dont start on it....
On my turbo (GT2560r) the nut could be removed with a 8mm wrench (please dont use the grip pliers)
I could not repair mine (ball bearring) so i send it to:

Great guy to work with (ok,its in england) repair cost were very good (150dollars) including 1 new bearring...
