I've had a VNT 25... Posted by Karl [Email] (#161) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Karl) on Mon, 26 Feb 2001 07:30:00 In Reply to: VNT turbos ..., Kevin K [Profile/Gallery] , Sun, 25 Feb 2001 19:25:59 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I had a VNT 25 as OEM turbo on my previous car, a Peugeot 405 T16 (4wd, 2 litre turbo, 220 hp). I can testify that it is a real blast (when it works).
In Saab language, you get the spool-up and throttle response of a T25 at lower revs (up to 3000 rpm). Then it shifts up and feels more like a Mitsu TD04 in an Aero all the way to redline.
Unfortunately I experienced pretty lousy reliability from car and turbo, so I got rid of it. But it sure was fun to drive...
