you might want to ask this question in general tech and modifications. the Schwitzer is about a Garrett T25 sized turbo and oil cooled only. i have 1 sitting on my TV cabinet coz it sucks but thats just my opinion. stuff all midrange or top end poke as far as i'm concerned. some people like them though.

i'd say get a Garrett T25, T25G, or T28. you won't go back!

I used to run a schwitzer, was the equivilent to a T25 although with a larger exhaust wheel. It had huge midrange power, and pretty decent top end. The only problem i had was the wastegate was too small for my application and would over boost, even with the wastegate fully open. I bored it out and fixed this a little, but still had problems with that. so i changed for a t28bb.

They are very well built turbos, none of that cheaper stuff you should watch out for.

stick with the shwitzer otherwise u will have to make up a new dump pipe as they have a different flange, but are good turbos for the ets

ah ok. must be different series Schwitzer's or something. mine is just an oil cooled T25 sized Schwitzer.

the dump flange is the same apart from an extra bolt hole on the Schwitzer.
