OK i got this T3 with .38 exhaust housing and unknown comp. A/R of a diesel turbo R/V its a remanufactured Garrett unit with internal wastegate. Will this be efficient on a B16A1?

It prolly came off a VW diesel Rabbit. I've always wanted one for some hot, sweaty Suzuki Swift GTi 1.3 liter turbo goodness. Or maybe just a Metro 1.0. It doesn't take more than 100 hp to the wheels to get one of those eggs in the 14's.

it would be good for a low rpm only daily driver. So u dont have to rev it to 4500 just to keep up in traffic.

.48 should be fine on a D16... even on the higher end..

the larger housings will create more lag, but flow more at the top end. Depends on what you like.
