Quick spool on a Honda is a handicap anyway. 1-2 gear burnouts up the *** with no power up top. Big turbo lags for a second, gives that 1 tire fryer time to get somewhat of a grip, and then carries you through in the top end. Top end wins every kind of race except maybe auto X or rally lol. No use having gobs of low end torque if you can't put it to the ground efficiently. Not to mention a big(er) turbo lets you stay out of boost around town and get some good MPG still if you're tuned properly. I know I told you that before, but IMO it's the right advice. I think you'd be plenty happy with a smaller T3/T4. Power to get you above 350whp and a power band that's better suited for a WWD car that revs kinda high.

Re: WTB T25 flanged anything bigger then Gt28R
Im seriously looking into T3/T4s
But I cant find a T3 manifold for less then 400, then i would need to re-do my downpipe.. RIGHT nOW as is, it would be more cost efficient to get the expensive DBB turbo

Re: WTB T25 flanged anything bigger then Gt28R
i have a gt3076r with a tial housing. i might be willing to sell the turbo minus the turbine housing.
You would just need to buy a t25 housing.
I might be able to help you with that also. lmk
