T25.

They both can be bulky if they still have the internal gate on them though, just not big.

t25 you are correct... but dont think getting a 14b in a civic will be as easy as a t-25 one has an actual elbow that comes off the turbo housing(the T-25) and the 14b uses a j pipe and usually mitsu turbos on civics are mounted backwards with the intake facing the drivers side.. your gonna have to have a custom j pipe made that would be pretty hard and have alot of un- neccasary bends that would take it all over the place when you could just go with the t-25 and its WAY easier...

Ive owned plenty of dsm's and have also had a crx single cam with a t-25 if ur deciding which one you want go t-25 it may not flow as many CFMS as the 14b but its not a HUGE difference but for a civic ur usually not going to be maxing either one of those turbos out.. in reality if thats your case then go with the T-25 it spools faster than the 14b but if ur redlining high your not gonna be making much power up there with one... good luck with whatever you choose...

yeah they both pretty much baby turbos, 14b is not what you really want to run unless your max goal is in the 200whp range~. Both turboes will die off near redline , i reccomend a small t3 tubro as the smallest turbo to run on hondas because it doesnt have alot of lag and will have the capacity to not let your torque die off.
