you will have no gains with that turbo at all , its to small even for stock 12a. you are better off getting a s4 turbo and drill the bolt pattern 5mm to make it fit the 12a , turbo prep your stock nikki www.rotaryshack.com , and get turbot hat from there as well and off you go.

the tb25 came in volvos in line 5 cylinder and no they would not work for the rotary its to small , any t3 turbo is just to small for the rotary engine. i would still go for the s4 set up and it will be much less and you will have better gains. search on the s4 turbo on the 12a you will find many write ups about this.
