Seems like quite a few use the T25 I'm going to use a T28... are you contemplating a conversion??

Stock tb25 on mine fast enough for me

I've done the conversion, (well worth doing) however the turbo housing is starting to crack. i have sourced another xm turbo and that is in a very

similar state. I know i can weld the housing but feel a more popular turbo would be the way forward.

Was it off a 200sx ?

If you have done the 2.0 8v conversion i.e 406, XM and xantia etc... I beleive you are limited on turbo options...for me the 2.0 8v was just wrong on so many fronts. Currently doing a 1.9 8v turbo conversion...

Very limited turbo wise.... A very torquey engine though, defo thinking a Nissan sx t25 is the way to go. Just got to draw up the plans for a custom exhaust manifold

Did you use the xm cam or a 1.9 gti cam

No just the bog standard thing that came with it from the factory

[Reebmit 51 4 Cars]

Still in the process of getting parts together, will stick with standard 1.9 GTi cam...initially..

My xm engine is completely standard except for a blled valve... now running .8 instead of .5 bar and it runs sweet.

Ive got a 1.9 gti cam... maybe it'll run sweeter !!
