    is it a big difference then? i was toying with the idea but didnt know if it was really worth it so been holding out for the bigger ones!! but if its good enough i might just source a decent 16t and go from there,sounds like its put a smile on your face so must of done something

    With the right supporting mods, a 16t can be a very capable turbo. On a previous set up with a 16t on my car, it was faster than any other 19t'd car I knew of at the time, apart from one, that had the same supporting mods with a 19t, and there wasn't much (if anything) in it then.

    Well done, sounds like your a happy bunny!!

    Have to disagree mate the 15g is a fast spooling little turbo just run's out of puff at the top end but it still managed to get my Mrs down the 1/4 mile in a 855 in 14.6 with just a remap and panal filter EVERYTHING else standard which i belive is faster than a modded saffy

    Ps how's the Omega??pmsl

    Pedro's on there @ 14.557 when he had a 15g IIRC.

    The 15g is also hugely underestimated, it's far from crap. Very near 300bhp is quite possible with good supporting mods, and decent mapping. Of course it does run out of puff when compared to a 16t, but then the same can be said when comparing the 16t with a 18t/19t.
