A T-25. Not sure of the trims and such...but it is the same as the 1987 Sunbird 2.0 GT Turbo. 8)

Ummmmmm sorry but I had a 1987 GT Sunbird that ran a T-25 from the factory! 84-85 on the 1.8L is the only years a T2 came on a Sunbird or Grand Am. Even then the thing was so frikkin small and the motor was such a dog they knew it was a mistake! Another issue was the T2 on those cars were not water-cooled and they had many service returns on them before the warranties ran out!

And before you say, "see there is a watercooled upgrade that is a T02". Realize that is an upgrade you can purchase from Garrett...the T02 never came on the 2.0 Sunbird/Grand Am or Pontiac 2000. Pontiac was in love with the T-25 for whatever reason...obviously big enough for the 2.0L, but not enough for the 3.1L 8)
*edit* I do take back that the Sunbird and GP Turbo's are identical...obviously a different part number...different trims I am sure! :oops: 8)

The sunbird used different a/r, believe it was .48 on both sides.
