Would this be a good turbo for a H23 engine. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33742&item=2477065081&rd=1
I was thinking of getting a rebuilt turbo just because they are a little bit cheaper and i wont be running that much boost. If this is a bad turbo, please explain or if going w/ the rebuilt is bad also, explain. I dont know much about all the sizing numbers, just that i want an A/R around .65. I remember seeing that was good

Looks like a straight T4 to me, you don't want it. It also has an exhaust A/R ratio of 1.00. You would want something that is a .63 A/R T3 housing.

would would the difference be between the T4 and T3, also is there a big difference between a T25 and those?

The T4 housing is much, much larger than a T3 housing. Larger wheels, usually larger A/R ratios, and you need a different turbo manifold. A T3 is quite a bit bigger than a T25, and a typical T04E is a lot bigger than a T25.

so theres a difference between a T4 and a T04? Does the sizing go T25, then T3 then T4, so its like a number thing? but 25 is 2.5...

What about this one

Do you want the larger, T4, to be the exhaust side or the compressor side?

It looks like that one has the larger exhaust side, that wont spool up as quick. I know turbonetics makes their t3/t4s w/ a larger compressor side and the exhaust side is smaller.

don't bother with those turbos. Do the research on that :) Those turbos have been known to crap out a lot. A buddy of mine baught one and within a couple weeks the seals were shot and leaked oil. Do yourself a favor and just get a good new turbo or a good used turbo that you know has good quality behind the name.
