well it has a stock wastegate. well you can but you need to probably run an exhaust and pod to make the full potential of the turbo.

again its upto you to put extra mods to get more power (injectors, ecu, fuel pump, boost controller)

well you can put it on either rb20 or rb25

and the 2530 is the least laggy out if the hks gt series

I have a HKS GT2530 turbo to suit RB20, RB25 and SR20

Mr Rb20 they are a great turbo for an RB20. But be sure it is a T3 not T25 flange.

The same turbo cannot fit an SR20 and RB series engine as they have different exhaust flanges.

Forgetting the very latest HKS turbos the HKS GT2510 is the smallest, but typically the 2530 is seen to be the better option.

Oh and it uses an internal wastegate.

Do a search, plenty of happy RB owners using 2530s with stock injectors and re-written ECUs.

read the last page of thre thread, some RB25 owners weigh in on the conversation.

I have been in a RB25 witha 2530, and i sure dont think its "too small".. its very responsive and can give up to a 50rwkw improvement over std turbo. A great turbo.

from my understand the sr20's and rb (20 and 25) are changable

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
