Default yeah, they look identical until you line them up side by side ;)

that one has bigger turbines and compressor wheels than a straight GT25. Made to flow about 100hp more than a straight GT25. It's probably a ball bearing too.

Default Definitely more pitch, was the intake on the compressor housing machined as well.....

or is the new compressor the same diameter as the original one?

Default GT is their twin ball bearing series.

I plan on running the top GT25/35 that rayhall sells which should get me up near 500 hp with the 2032cc motor.

Default I'm not sure if the 'G' already indicates it's a ball bearing cartridge (or core or CHRA)...

maybe for the RayHall line of turbos they are. I like to associate the 'G' with Garrett since many OEM turbos use that as the part description.

Default 'G' stands for Garrett. The "Ballistic Concept" refers to the performance-oriented line...

of turbos or with "ball bearing" cores.
