Default hmm, power difference .63 or .48 turbine T3

Im gonna get another turbo for my accord and im wondering if i might be better off with a t3 .60 .48 or .60 .63. I have a .60 .63 and its a little laggy and doesnt spool up until 4500 or so, im wondering what the top end power difference is between the .63 and .48 turbine, does the .63 pull that much harder top end or is it worth it performance wise to get the .48?

the compressor side won't affect the lag as much as the exhaust side will. if you want less lag, get a .48-exh side/.60-comp side turbo. i bet the turbo you got now is a .63-exh side. mine is .60/.63-comp side and full boost in 2nd comes at 4800rpm 10psi while some people get 10psi at 3200-3500rpm. a .48/exh would cut down on lag.

If your running under 10psi on your setup, the .48 will be fine, it will spool a bit faster and will probably make about 15-20hp less.
