Find the compressor map for the turbo your going to use and figure it out.

EDIT: Wow I sound like total jerk, but you must understand that this question gets asked quite a bit and people get tired of asking the same quesion over and over. It all really depends on what your looking for. Something with fast spool or something with good midrange and topend power, how much boost you actually plan to run on the turbo and if your in its effciency range... If you can get a hold of a compressor map for it and know how much power your looking for you can graph it on a compressor map and get an idea if the turbo will work for you.

It's been done before someone from HomeMadeturbo has done it with the FD twin turbo unit.

well i apologize for not saying exatcly what im looking for....im planning on running a low boost daily driver application using a d16 from a 90 crx Si. no mroe than 8 lbs of boost max and im looking for fast spool. performance is gonna be taking a second seat right now because im more worried about getting everything togetehr first. i was told rx7 turbos are to3. i just want it to bolt up to my manifold lol. my question was basically is there any reason why this turbo would be a bad idea in general? such as wouldnt work with any peice by peice setups ect....but thanks for the help guys! any mroe info on it please post!!!
