Hello all...new the mod arena and am ready to get my feet wet. I just bought a 96 gsx eclipse and the engine blew on the way home, thermostat was froze closed and temp guage was out. I have replaced the engine due to the 4th cyclinder having a hole in it and the exhaust manifold as well. I recieved a phone call a lil while ago saying that the turbo is gone as well. I have tried to do the research, but I am not finding the info that I need. The plan for the car is for show. I would love to get into the engine mods at a later time, so what I need is...what is the better turbo to put in place of the T25 for a stock engine? Like I said, I will hit the 1/4 mile at a later time, so keep that in mind for the info. Thanks for the help....

Also...will this fit the stock setup or will I have to fab or purchase something to make it fit? I believe the only I have to replace due to overheat issue is the blower, but I would rather be sure of what I'm getting into from the start, rather than a headache at the end. Thanks again for the help...

roadrace has em brand new for $500. you also need the install kit for $150ish but compared to a brand new t25 from the dealer ($1000) its not bad at all.
