Default will this be a good turbo for b18b (.50/.63 with a 60 trim compressor wheel)

yes i see the sticky on the top and read most of what i could understand. i know there are a million topics on this turbo sizing for b18b's but everyone seems to have slightly different turbos so i dont know what one is going to be best. how about this size for a b18b

.50/.63 ar with a 60 trim compressor wheel made by garrett. will this be to big? its going on a stock block hopefully running 12psi at the track and 8 daily. thanks for all of your help. i kinda think it will be to big. your comments are appreciated

Its a good turbo but just by your specs I smell Turbo ZY or SSAutocrapper turbo...

On stock b18b, at 12 psi from any T3/T4... you better get it tuned correctly otherwise you might see KaBoom!

that'd probably spin up pretty good. not too laggy, just good traction control

too many other determining factors to guess...just buy the ------- thing and see for yourself. if you dont like the spool time sell it and buy a smaller one.

Fooken great advice! I'm guess 4.5k for full boost.. but yea, there are lots of variable and they all depend. Just buy it and if its too slow sell it to me.
