Im not sure if it would be a direct bolt on but im sure if u found one u could play around with it and get some custom piping and as long as its at like the 6psi or so you could prob see the same HP gain

I would say RRM and RPW is better as we know, just because we KNOW that it comes with everything that you need. These kits i have not heard of anyone running them. I'm going to be running a 14b on my car.. a custom kit :-) but that is minor. These kits are less expensive, but they are unproven so far.

I read those ads.....jeez since when is a t25 capable of 300 plus hp?????!!!!! If that was the case then why in the hell are us DSMer's going with the turbo upgrades like the 16g to obtain this kind of power????? This is another case of bad information. Bahamut you should know you drive a 1st gen....the 14b while not being the best turbo around is much more capable out the box than the quick spooling t25.......I would take one over a t25 anyday..too bad mitsu didnt keep this turbo in the 2nd gens.....

The 14b is decent, and I have read a few/rare brave DSM'ers who have worked the hell of it, blasting in the high 12's.
I give the T25's dues that it spools fast, but most 2g DSM'ers want a bit more on the top rpm. They either hit the T28 or get a 16G.

RRM and RPW are way better, that is just a plain T-25 the RRM has a big T-28. U can get much more gains out of the T-28 and probably a better spool. If your only looking to stay at 6 psi then it doesnt really matter, basically any kit out there will do the same at such low psi.

Now as for you ronit lancer:
You are posting wrong info my friend. The t25 sppols much quicker than the big t28. I know I have both of them. Where the t25 sppols up at around 2500rpm the big t28 will not hit full boost until about 3400...thats a diference. Of course the t28 has more capability than a t25..it's got bigger wheels and holds boost to redline...for me thats 7500. You can go for the big t28....but man it is gonna take alot for something like a lancer to fully utilize it. For me using the stock actuator and the BCS it holds 15 psi with no boost controller involved. The t25 is really efficient at about 14psi much higher it poops out and doesnt like hi rpms....above 5500 or six. I dont think your lancers even rev that high...so unless your goal is above 15 psi the quicker spooling t25 may be your best choice. You must also realize that since the t25 has almost instant boost it does tend to spin the front wheel quite a bit do to the instant power surge...going with the big t28 and slower spool up (but quick in comparison to most turbos) you have a little more time to get some grip and go to avoid wheel spin and hop......Now dont forget you got those garrett ball bearing t25s that spool up nice to,,,,,,,

just a thought - thats the same kit sold on turbo-kits.com and is using the same pics .. its cheaper on turbo-kits.com as well ..
just thought id share that
as well, this kit is NOT a direct bolt on.. the site states:
"These turbo kits are not a direct bolt on item. These kits require welding that should be done a reputable shop!!! To be specific the down pipe will have to be fabricated to mate to your existing exhaust. There are alot of companies out there selling this kit claiming it is a direct bolt-on item--Totally untrue at this point in time. Plan are in the works to correct this. A good muffler shop should charge less than $100.00 to correct the problem."
Not that I'm slamming this as its ALWAYS nice to see new options
