on a turbocharged vehicle, low and mid range grunt will be determined by the a/r of the hot side.

doesnt matter its a 2.0 german motor or a 2.0 honda....

the secret is find the perfect turbine thats doesnt just spool to full boost close to redline.

the optimal setup is a tubular manifold and a medium-small sized turbine housing on a big wheel (62-68mm)

A small turnine housing 76 would really shine if given just enough back pressure to spool at low rpm's (2500-3000)

screw bmw, vw, and audi.. honda's have shined better than any german turd imho when forced.
