Absolutely not. If you want that wheel spinning at 150,000rpm, shattering, and getting sucked into your engine, that's your business, but I wouldn't run it. :P

on a stock d16a6, thats a little over kill. i'm only shooting for 200-225hp.

a t3/t4 is never overkill
u always want room for improvement ;)

i can hit 225hp with the 42/48, i'm trying to find a .60 housing for those special occasions

the t4 compressor is more efficient, so most likely youll get lower charge temps and more power as a result
