Default a/r 63 t3 bb too big?

i think i kinda went overboard but im just about to slap on my new turbo into my sohc civic. its a garret t3/to4e .50 trim a/r 63. ball bearing. any input on this turbo for my STOCK y8 would be greatly appreciated. oh yeah...im coming to you uberdata geniuses for my tuning...im ditching the svafc finally! After 1 year of reliable services from them. see you guys soon. just put in your 2 cents on this turbo. im thinking the a/r is a bit large...delaying my spool time...but top should be a good kick in the ***...right before my low red line..lol.

I think its to big for that 1.6. so why dont you sell it to me for my b18 . I've got a t25 on it right now and it fun but I need more up top. I also have a air research t3 ar 42/48 that Im going to put on as soon as bmc sends me my down pipe flange that I ordered almost a month ago but Ill be glad to trade you

Being a BB turbo, that normally can drop spool time by about 1000rpm compared to a wet bearing style.

But I do think selling it to me would be a better idea!

Seeing as everyone wants it. you may as well keep it... If it sucks, get something smaller.

Delayed spool is called launch control

launch control? lol, at a decent boost level, say 10psi, I bet your wheels will start spinning around 5k in second gear and won't stop until 3rd.
