big is well bigger, flows more air. If you got a free 16g, I would just stick with that, It's free.

The problem with evo turbos though, isnt the compressor housing is on the other side of the exhaust housing? I think on an Evo turbo your filter is going to be on the wrong side. If you can get it to work then I would say keep it, they are good turbos. They have flow characteristics like an Evo III 16g but better spool because they are twin scroll.

with the whole filter being on the wrong side thing do you really see that causing that big of a problem? and would i use still use the 16g manifold no matter the year of turbo?
what does that twin scroll mean anyway?

Well, I dont know, but I think that with the filter on the wrong side like that the o2 sensor housing wont bolt up to your down pipe. Also, I dont think theres a lot of room on the other side of the engine bay for a MAF and filter. I dont know if the evo turbo will bolt up to the DSM manifold, but theres a way to find out :). Someday when you dont have anything better to do, I would go out and take the turbo off of your car and see whats up with that evo turbo. It would be a great turbo if you could get it to fit.

Personally, I would sell it. I bet you could get like $300 or so for it, then you could pick up a DSM 16g variant.

It doesn't work.

thanks for the help. i think ill sell it and get a big 16g just so i know it will fit and what not.
