GT28 OK for 1.5 Yaris engine?

Is this too much turbo for our cars? Stock internals.

Reason I ask is it seems everyone goes with the T25 turbos, but some of the more economical e-bay ones do not have ball bearings. This unit on the other hand looks a little better made. Not sure about the compressor side w/72 trim. Too much?

[riverc4c]

Never mind. Found all the info. I wasn't searching with the right keywords.

Too much?

Yes. Glad you found the info, though. Good luck with your project!

Yes. Glad you found the info, though. Good luck with your project!

Thanks! I ordered the manifold & sandwich adapter from you. PM me when it ships out.

Thanks for the input. I decided to go with the GT25. Seems to be the most popular choice for our little engines. Not looking for more than 6 or 7lbs of boost so I can keep the stock internals. Almost done buying the parts.

a GT30 will work too, but that doesn't make it a good choice (well, it would be good for a drag application).

GT25 will be good and nimble for you.

Very good link. Thanks. It's been a while since I mess with this stuff. Forgot most of it. Last car I worked on was turbocharging a Ford Focus back in 2000(ish).

yes, but within the Garrett GT family of turbos, it IS a valid question. As long as you are comparing apples to apples, it's a fair comparison.

Further I have PERSONALLY used both the GT25 and 28 in my car, and I know the difference. Next is a GT2871, then I'll know the difference with that too.

Sorry Carlos not going to spar with you. There is now enough info on the thread for the OP to understand.

Guess what came in today...
So I already installed the new plugs, Fuel pump arrives tomorrow and I should have the new injectors by Friday.
