The Garrett GT28R is basicly a HKS GT2510 or HKSGT2530.

The HKS GT2835 is kind of unique though, because HKS uses a shaved down (T3?) turbine wheel in a modified T25 turbine housing. It's closest Garrett cousin is the GT2871R which has a similar compressor but the same old stock t25 turbine wheel.

Sometimes people say GT25R or GT28R without really being specific as to which garret turbo they are refering to, because there are really GT25 and GT28 families that include a range of different turbos with different power capabilites.

Got that from a much older post:

So if this is in fact true then you could switch up to a GT30 series from Garrett good for about 25 PSI maybe a little more or a GT35 if you dont mind some lag.
