Default T4 Turbo T04B too big?

hey i was wondering if a turbo with the Turbine A/R of .96 and compressor A/R of .60. Borg Warner T04B turbocharger S trim. Would it be a bit too big for a JDM B16a SiR II motor? Would it lag much?

And where can i find a downpipe housing for this? And what flange do i use?

holy ---- dude, that has an exhaust ar of .96, that ---- is for a rotary or something that puts out a ton of exh gas, on hondas u usually have a smaller exh than compressor. unless you want some super lag dont put that thing on.

you can get any flange made at an exhaust shop with a flange gasket. You should just put that thing on for a run or two and see if u can even get it to make boost.

If it does it will be damn close to redline, and be barely anything but it will make serious hp b/c that thing puts out huge cfm.

What is that turbo from? I can't see a reason for such a big exh wheel unless u have a big engine and dont want a lot of boost, like a tractor or something.

perfect size, for my RX-7, i have a 1.15 though, for b16as i think a .60 would be the largest if you want a good power band.

Indeed, looks like a diesal turbocharger, I also see it on ebay? what 300 bucks or something?

A downpipe, well I dont know if I have seen a flange for that style or not, the normal 4 bolt flange will be to small. I am sure someone is making flanges for it.

But, it is a bit overkill for a b16a,
