It uses the TD05 exhaust housing on the 2G DSM , but there the Mitsu connection ends. The compressor side is Garret. The T25 is on many more cars than just DSM's , including my WRX wagon and the Volvo turbos ( 740 and 850R and 940 ) Older generation Volvo's used the T-3 , again a Garret compressor unit. All " T " designation turbo's are Garret compressor units.

Thats correct. In fact, I dont even think the turbine housing is a TD05. Its way smaller than the 6cm, and more like the td04 housings on the autos. I wouldnt be surprised if garret custom made tha housing for the t25s, just to ship a whole unit. Just like the 7cm unit garret designed for use with conventional garret turbos on DSMs, which is used by PTE if I'm not mistaken. In fact it has to be. FP did thier own. And SBR's is cast specifically for use with the BB GT cartridges.

Yeah , actually you are right. I beleive it is the TD04 housing. I'm not a big T25 user (by choice) and my knowledge of them is practically nonexistent

Hey, nothing wrong with that. If mitsu got it right the first time, none of us would even know what the hell a T25 is

They got it right the 1st time. Its called the 14B. But apparently Mitsu decided to try to satisfy ordinary people that don't know how to drive turbo cars properly , and watered down the 1G into the 2G. The entire concept of the 2G was to promote better driveability by making lowend torque more accessable. Bad move , IMO. The only thing that really saved the 2G from early extinction and alienation by the true DSM lovers was the far-out body styling.......And now I'm rambling......

I think the 16g should have been the stock turbo on all the DSMs... But thats us. Some of the wankers that bought these cars would have pissed and moaned about it until they sold the car... Oh well..

Pissed and moaned about a 16G ? Well , I would not include myself in that list. Thank the car gods Mitsu put a nasty turbo on the EVilution. And IIRC its bigger than a Big 16.........
