Default using a 1g eclipse turbo on an h22.....stupid too small?

reason im asking is because I have one just laying around. I'll upgrade later when I have money too. Im pretty sure its way to small for an h22, but I wanted to get some opinions on what people think about using it first. Im only ganna use it for 5psi. waste of time? or not?

if your looking to to get your running then you will be fine. you will spool the **** out of it and your top end will be so so due to the small turbo and turbine housing. but a good turbo would be a gt30r pending on your power goals

it should be a good starter turbo, with minimal turbo lag due to its small-ness, but will run outta breath up top

if you have the right mani, i say throw it on and see how it works

I was running out of breath on my stock dohc zc by 6000rpm if that gives you an idea. I thought just putting that on my zc was a waste of time and a let down so you will be realy let down. A waste of time and money. Do it right the first time is what I live by now after that expierience with that setup!
