its still not a T3. it just has a larger turbine in there. The turbo i have on my car is still a T3, even though it has a T60-1 compressor wheel in it.

Waht do you guys think of a a t25 turbo, cold side is a .48 A/R, and the hot side is a .89.Comes with all gaskets and seals, along with instructions from Garrett. Has a t3 exhaust flange, so it will bolt up to most turbos. The larger exhaust allows it to boost smoother, with less boost spike. Woudl it boost up faster than a regual t25???? By the way what the max boost you could run on a Garrett 25 anyway and would would be a everyday saft driving boost??? Does anyone know the max Hp a T25 woudl put out????

I have a GT25BB and according to Garrett it can support 325+ HP so I say go for it. And I was running it at 13 psi...blew my headgasket though. but it can put out atleast 18.
