T3 and T04B compressors have been used. T04B being the largest. The T25 is soon to be used by people ordering the TurboDiscounters kit. Both the T3 and T04B compressors fully spool around 3000-3200. The T25 would spool a little lower. The T04B would run a cooler charge, the T3 would be similar but a little warmer and the T25 would be the hottest. T25s and T3s are pretty generic. T3/T04 hybrids are usually custom built per application. I got a T3/T04B from Turbonetics with a .48A/R, but it's not being installed for another week. Another member has the same T3/T04B installed and says he if fully boosted around 3000rpm or so. Same applies for other members using a T3. Nobody is using a T25 yet, but maybe in a couple days that will change. A T3 is sufficient enough though and can easily be upgraded if you need to.

especially since you can go from a T3 to a T3/TE04 hybrid by just unbolting your T3 and bolting the hybrid on. With a T25 you will have to change the downpipe, change the flange on the manifold (or the whole manifold), and the intake/intercooler piping.
