I have a 1995 RS Cosworth Escort and have recently replaced the T25 with a GT 3071R - WG turbo. I also replaced the ECU with a Motec 400. I am very happy with the turbo - very little lag (as was the case with the T25 ) but holds full boost to max revs. So far so good !! Getting about 400HP but plenty more boost if wanted.

cheers

Internally gated GT30 is what you require

Will work on l8 but would need live mapped to make the most of it. Also as DaveEscos said go for the internal wastegate version.

you can run with p8 but as said you will need it mapping but for the cost you might as well go for standalone management we do the big turbo conversion on the small turbos from £3800inc vat but that is with a new t35
