help choosing a new turbo for my setup
stock d16y8. the greddy turbocharger just isn't tooting my whistle anymore. It starts to fall off in psi at the top end of the rpm band at 9psi on the wastegate. I want a turbo that can handle it easily and then be good for about 20psi when I build the internals.
say all turbos are exactly the same except for wheel sizes, which would be better?
.42/.48
.42/.63
.60/.63
.57/.48
.50/.63
I still want relatively quick spooling but I also want a turbo that will laugh at 9psi and pump out 20psi under full boost to redline when I finally get that far.

but if I kept the exhaust housing ratio at .48 (isnt the TD04 on the greddy kit .48 on exhaust side?) won't the spool time be the same?
it'll just have a bigger air mover on the compressor side pushing more air so it could handle more air volume right?
this is the thing that always confuses me...

ok, so as long as I kept the exhaust housing at .48 it will spool up around 3k or so
wont it run out of steam with a .48 exhaust housing at around the same rpm that the greddy turbo runs out at??
or does the .60 or whatever compressor housing a/r ratio negate that??
