also, I gathered that the 16g didnt spool on your car untill 6000rpm? thats strange considering there compressor maps are damn near linear untill boost comes up. so belive what you want, from who you want, I think they used the wrong trim 16g.

We (spooledmotorsports) recommend using the 14B turbos on any motor that is 1.5L to 2.2L in size looking to make anywhere between 200 and 300 horsepower.
SPECS:
Mitsubsihi model number: TD05H-14B
Horsepower Capabilities: ~300hp
Internal Wastegate: Yes
Water cooled: Yes
Wastegate setting: 7-10 psi
Here is a link to all the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries turbo flow maps http://www.stealth316.com/2-3s-compflowmaps.htm
and here is a complete turbo upgrade guide http://www.stealth316.com/2-turboguide.htm

pat, the pure fact is that for, roughly the same price as a 14b, which flows 430cfm, you could have a physically identical turbo that spools no later than 500rpm and flows 520 cfm, lamens terms, say you are running the 8psi zpi kit with the 14b and produce "180"whp, the same kit with the "small" 16g would make 10 more whp at the same boost level, and raise at roughly a 1:1 rate in hp VS psi as to the 14b.
let me state again, im not hating on their kit, just wanting to know why not use a higher max choke rate turbo if the price is similar, proshopXb, please dont make me delve into the srt-4 Vs everything debate, you wont win. also, as for your car being the test dummy, which 16g did they test on your car? td05? td06? big? small? evo3? you cant say it made 1500rpm difference without being more specific, since its impossible for a small 16g to spool taht much later than the stock 14b.

aha. thus the slower spool. as for actually getting my question answered, I dont care about that anymore it dosent matter why they chose the 14b, I personally wouldnt use it, but if you enjoy buying turbos more than once, or dont plan to go much further than the 14b ceiling, then its all symantics.

TO me, a smaller turbo is plenty enough. I don't claim to be a turbo expert like some SRT4 Owners (proshop not included) but I am willing to learn and learning I am. Personally, I will be using ZPI's kit, proshop's to be exact. and I want the shortest spool time possible. When it becomes proven that I can add some N20 to the mix to decrease spool time and that when build our motors can handle more then 11psi, then I might consider upgrading to a MHI 16G 60 trim. Until that point, I will sit back and watch everyone else blow everything up :grin:
