only turbo will carry over if u want custom kit... but why bother? more headache and more pain that way. get a premade stage 1 or 2. t-25 isn't good for 420a because the compression is too high for the turbo... there's over a pt on the compression... too fast spool and very little top end (even more den 2g 4g63)

Ignore the peanut gallery.

It can be done. No bones, it can and has been done. Is it the best way? Nope. is it easy? Nope. Is it cheaper? Not by a long shot. The only things you can possibly use from a GST/X would be the turbo itself and possibly the stock IC, and those only with custom piping. You'd have to get a custom manifold made, downpipe and IC piping fabricated, BOV (cuz you don't want the stock 2G BOV), and a slew of other things for your fuel system, oil feed and return.. Lots of work. But it can be done.

Do you think you can handle it? Or would you rather just spend the same amount of money and buy a stage 2 that was built for your car?

Stick w/ a star/HRC stage II.Or I even.By the time your done w/ the costs and the headaches it won't be worth it.And you'll more likely make more power on the bigger turbos.
