Have you tried searching? just in case somebody has done this before and already put all the info on the internet somewhere. long shot, but you might get lucky.

but you can basically just get any turbo you want and bolt it straight on, the engine/ecu will compensate and make magic happen!

I had a 25de Neo in my old 33 and I turbod it on my green p's. All I did was source out all the stock parts so, side mount inter cooler, stock 25 turbo, as much of the stock piping as I could get and that was it. I already had the det ecu but you will need that aswell. In total I think everything cost me $300 but I also paid a mechanic friend to install it because I didn't want the hassle of tapping holes for the oil lines etc

Sell your car, buy a turbo car spend money and time (that was saved for the turbo conversion on the N/A) and make the turbo car faster.

Adding a stock RB25DET turbo to a RB25DE Skyline to be still slower than a stock Golf GTi, heck even a Golf GTD is not worth the effort, time, money.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
