Default 20g turbo in b18a

how do you guys think a 20g turbo will do on a b18a??? my boi ran this in his d16 and had decent spool up and mad top end...do you think it will run alright..i mean proficiency and all...and this motor is built to 9:1 compression ratio, rods, sleeves, etc...what you guys think....the 20g is similar to size as a t04...

Should be fine. I dont see any problems, the only thing is the increasement of displacment between the two... it may drop out on you at the very top end, other then that, you should be alright, there is only one way to find out. IF you have that turbo laying around, go for it... however if you plan on buying one i say just go with a garrett t3 or so.

More turbine restriction than, and smaller compressor housing (creating more charge temps) than traditional T3/04E. If you have one laying about - run it. If you can get one for a good deal and the manifold/fitment is no problem - go for it. If you are trying to decide between one and a regulat T3/04E... stay with the less expensive garrett.

The 20g is not a small turbo. It should be sufficient for a B18a.
