Ok Nog's witch turbo better the T04e 50A/R 57trim or HX35?

This is what i have Honda 2.0 B20a non Vtec i was thinking of upgrading my turbo right now i have the T04e 50A/R 57trim with .63 hot side garrett. So will the Holset HX35 better then what i have or should stick with what i have?
And yes i did search but did not find much comparing these turbo's. :1

Since you already have a half decent turbo just use it. I had a ct26 with to4e internals on b16 and ---- I miss that car

I am going to build a new manifold thats why i wanted to know witch turbo was better the T04e or the Holset Hx35. Right now i have the T04e and it starts spooling at 3200rpm's and full boost at 3500rpm's .What i want to know how does the HX35 compare's to the T04e is it better or is it a wasting my time . I know some where on this board someone had both of these turbo and i would to hear what he think's.

i know i never ran one but think the guys that where running the holset turbo had to buy a smaller exhuast houseing 9cm or somting like that but im not 100% sure.
but dude im bout to boost my b20/pr3 VTACK and you say you get full boost at 3500 what size of exhaust on your turbo is it a stg 3 wheel i see your housing is .63 ar i have bascically the same turbo only its egay.. but ill run it any way had no problems on my single cam with it..

heres stage 1 vs stg 3

9 cm would be way too small on a 2.0... im running a 9 cm he351cw on my 1.6 sohc.... you want at least a 14-16cm housing i would think...

my T04e is a stage 1 wheel .Now for the exhuast it 2.5 from the turbo to the cat then 2.25 to the muffler but when i get a tig welder it will be 3.0in front to back.

oh ya i have a stage 3 exhaust wheel so ill be getting more lag cuz that seem too fast of a spool... i had full 16psi on my vtack turbo vitara d by 5800 rpm and i had the vtack-E and rockers (hx / vx ----) when i had it in my hatch wiht a ex cam+rockers taht ---- was full boost by just after vtack hit like 5200 and i was running a eGay cast 4-1 manifold kinda like yours.. so how much boost your running?

If you don't mind making a twin scroll manifold than I'll vote for the hx35.
