      It's not THAT big man. I actually think it would work ok, it'd be very streetable as most of you boost would kick in after 3,000 rpm or so.

      It would definately leave you room for improvement- big? yeah. too big? probably not.

      My two cents. Pretty good price on that unit.

            The turbo is too big..xhaust side. If you had an A4 without having to powerbrake you will not "see" full boost till about 4300-4500 RPM. On an engine that redlines at 5800-6000RPM there is no streetability...anything over .6 A/R (hotside) will be considered too laggy for the street...now on the other hand if you are trying to build something with 8alls then you will have to make a lot of changes from the stock configuration (regarding the engine)...it seems the turbo is good for 45lb/min of air flow which equates to about 450-500hp!!
