What do you want?

What are your goals?
Quick spool up, maximum drivable torque? Or happy for more lag but much bigger pushback when it comes on boost.

What size engine do you have? CG10 or CG13?

T15 is too small, T2 or T25 is really where its at depending on what you want and what engine you have.

T25's are a dime a dozen here in brisbane. All the people who put aftermarket/bigger turbos on their SR20DET's and CA18DET's in their pulsars and silvias try and sell them for like $200 but no-one ever buys them.

Most guys i know of who had them sitting around eventually flogged them off for like $100.

I got my T25 reconditioned for AUS$400..

Its brand new

What they have said is true. The T15, even the GT15 are too small.

The T2 is perfectly matched to our engine (ie. it spools up VERY early and holds power through most of the rev range) but there is no room for improvement.

The T25 is the logical choice if you want a nice push in the back with some decent top end and not much lag. If you're that worried about lag see if you can find a GT25 get one (expensive though)

I recommend not to get a cheapie turbo because you'll just be replacing it along with your catalytic converter within 3 months.

if i remember correctly 1 bar is 14.7psi so that would be 9.3345psi, with std fuel setup the injectors max out at 4psi, so you need more fuel or the wastegate adjusted down, or maybe put in a bleed valve?

Standard head gasket fine. Hack pulls 7psi on standard gasket. Alex is spot on. If you stay around 4/5 psi you will have enough fuel.
THe limit on the car stock standard is 4/5 psi. After that you need more fuel.If you go to say 7/8 psi put in another injector or fit bigger ones say off the Primera. Even at 7 psi the standard fuel pump is okay as is the standard ECU, head gasket etc.
