lol quadnie.
It's a T3/T4E 57 trim with a T3 AR .63 turbine housin.
My turbo will be almost similar...exept for the turbine housing..going to use a AR .36 housing....kinda tinym but onlt thing I got right now

Re:To Big
 
but the turbine looks big though...looks just like a .48

I think you will be happier with T3 with a .48 A/R on the turbine side. In my opinion, that turbo you mentioned is not efficient for that 1.5 non-Vtec unless you plan to floor the crap out of it all the time to make good boost. If you want better response for everyday driving and plan to boost below 9psi with stock internals don't go with a T3/T4. A T3 with a .48 A/R turbine should sufice and is a better match using a compressor map and it will pull hard all the way to redline.

any more opinions "please"

Yeah, if you don't want to be boosting unless you really put your foot into it, it'll probably suit you just fine. It's a common flange, so you could always sell it and swap turbos if you really don't like it.

I had one on my Crvtec and mad 306whp @ 12psi, spooled pretty fast on my setup. I'd imagne on a D15 its going to spool a little late, but hey.. thats why we call it "Traction control"

You may want a .48 exhaust housing to start off with.

I think it sounds abotu perfect. Turbocharging tends to ---- with your ride on the highway. With that setup you wont really hit boost too much while normal highway driving (which is a good thing) and still have the power you wont when you really get into it. If you had a built engine i would say no you want smaller but with a normal stock engine I would say that would be awesome for a daily driven car. How many pounds are you thinking of running?
