not to be a party pooper.. but why would anyone go out and just buy a turbo without sizing it first... unless it was in a kit and the kit was designed around a specific turbo.
The A/R you are referring to is the compressor side.. (.50), which is good for a T04 housing.
whats really going to make it work is the A/R on the turbine side. it should be a .48 at the most. a .62 will have too much lag for a daily driver, and will not spool up till around 4500rpm.. Makes for awsome racine with 8000rpm launches. Just remember, the smaller the number here, the faster the turbo will spool up.
BTW 300 at the wheels... its possible, but you better have deep pockets to make it happen on a reliable basis. We have a hell of a time trying to get the B18C up to 300 on the dyno and keep it civilized to drive on a regular basis, and you want to do that on a 1.6.
Just be happy with 225-250. you "COULD" still be in the high 12's if you know how to drive and set the car up properly.
good luck on the turbo system... drop me an email if you need any help..
