Default Street Sleeper - GT28RS (SSAC) Is this turbo perfect?

Im going to be changing my turbo setup this coming season as I dont like my setup this year, just to much power and not the power band I want. I want to make a fun car to drive around on the street, that has power everywhere.

It will be going in a Crx, d16 motor with forged internals and some headwork. Capable of probably pushing the turbo to its limits, or atleast the dsm 450's. @ 15-18psi

Thats the turbo I want, its aparently ball bearing. Ive been searching on them on here and people say they spool incredibly quick but all those motors were b series and the actual garrett turbos. Not the SSAC knockoff's.

I also dont know much about the turbine sizing, some people were saying there was a .82 version made? What is this .60/.63 like?

Can anyone make any speculation on what the spool time will be like on a built d16 with VERY short charge piping via backdoor intercooler. Right now I dont see full boost til 5500 and it sucks.

Also, about the internal wastegate, I notice its mounted on the compressor housing, for the backdoor intercooler, Im going to have to clock that compressor housing so the outlet faces the front of the car and down. How would I mount the wastegate? Does it matter? I was hoping to keep it internally gated as I should be able to control it fairly easily right?

Looking for advise here

Boost would be around 3-3500.If that thing doesnt grenade and holds up it would be a great turbo.GT28 series is awesome for a D16 and if you want to buy a real one they are on sale at various places for 6-800.

It's just a shame that those ball bearings are made of packed rice... delicious with soy sauce, yes, but it will most likely blow up... you should buy it and report back.

They're not that stupid. Probably spray painted marbles

i wouldn't trust that shitty *** china made garbage... i rocked a ball bearing T28 turbo off of a JDM Silvia on my Z6 motor awhile back, it was a good turbo, I made 232Hp and 218tq on 12psi, stock internals, full spool between 3000-3500 RPM
