i honestly dont feel the 16G is all that, they should have come with the car as a stock turbo is a correct statement, but me personally, would never spend the money to use one as an "upgrade" turbo, its nice on a 2G cause its alot stronger than the T25, but im a power junky and love the slingshot effect from a larger T04E or 20G compressor based turbo, ya its a little laggier, but on pump gas my 50 trim powered 2nd gen was taking down every 16G car i raced by football fields, with them more often than not running alot more boost than i was...of course i didnt race Tom's galant, but that thing is a whhooolllee different story...this was also with the regular supporting mods you should have on any car with an upgraded turbo, fmic, fuel, tuning apparatus..you could get away w/ the 16G without doing all of that stuff...but it isnt gonna be able to run enough boost to make it really worth it...your car, do what you want, thats my take
