Run it!

If you out grow it you can easily swap in a 16G, 18G, or a sleeper 20G with a big thugging TDO6H turbine wheel and never have to change the way the turbo bolts on!

i would just get a decent t3 and sell that tdo5 it will spool at 1200 and run out of breath by 5,000 so you will no longer have any gas milage and no top end not to mention a small turbo like that will kill your engine on intake temps and become a restriction at 5,000 just get a decent t3

if the 14b and 16g turbos both bolt up the same then i think ill just use the 14b for mock up untill i get a little closer the the end of the project and then grab a 16g from the junk yard

will that turbo even give you 12psi at redline? your h22 head flows way better than a 4g63. I think you might have a very fast spooling car that kinda chokes up on the top end

If you find 16G's in the junk yard, let me know the place so I can come get them.

All of them!

---- i would pay you 100 to find me a 16g at the yard

I have heard of people finding them in the yards, but they would only be on a modded DSM.

It might be easier for you to use a garret style turbo in the long run. The 14b on the 2.0 DSM is a decent turbo, but starts putting out hot air when you get into the 20psi range. On a 2.2 with what are probably better flowing components (I think the stock Honda 2.2 makes more hp NA than the DSM 2.0 does with a turbo) you could just have a hair dryer. The 16g will be better, but you can get some better, cheaper options with the T3 footprint.

The 16g never came stock on a DSM. Are you sure you're picking up 16g's? What yards do you call? Like the U-Pull it?
