is yours a 325? i think a 35r might be too big, maybe if you got the smaller exhaust housing, .63 i think. i went with a .82 for my 328. another option is the sc61. i believe it has the same compressor as the 35r except is not dbb and has a different exhaust housing. it is a very capable turbo and is less $$$ than the 35r. dbb will help spool greatly.

it also depends on how you want your car to drive. do you want it to pull hardest in the topend, like your 325 does now, or do you want more low end power? i think going with a laggier turbo will just help with traction issues down low. if you want quicker response go with a smaller exhaust turbine, and for a bigger topend go with a larger housing.
