big 16g or 20g ? that is the question
as the title says - thinking of getting a 1g which would be better ? will the 20g spool up quick enough - i've heard the big 16g spools up @ around 3500rpm ? let me know what you think thanks any input is appreciated

all depends on what you want out of the car. personally i say go with the evo3 16g. $569 shipped to your house. Basically the best bang for your buck right now. One key piece of advice.... dont think by only settling for a 16g that your car wont be as fast as if you were to put a 20g on it. All depends on your current mods. Have Fun

The cost involved with a 20g is not limited to the cost of the turbo alone. The whole setup is different. your intercooler pipes are no longer stock style. Coolant and oil lines need to be modified or changed. You probably want to go with an external wastegate setup on a 20g. Not to mention 20gs move more air. you probably need to reconsider your mas air situation. you'll need bigger injectors... should I go on?

When I see someone run 10s on an EVOIII 16g in a DSM, you can call me a believer.
It's a great turbo, but dont compare it to a 20g. It's not even in the same class. Really.
