Large for what? The 2.3? The 2.3 4g63 can run a GT35R type turbo with ease and get great application out of it. That is a rather large turbo that makes really good power. How streetable it is dependent on your setup. I'm not sure if the same would hold true for a 2.3 420a, but I can't imagine it being that different in terms of turbo applications.

What are you goals with the car as a turbo? With that we may be able to point out a better turbo for your applications.

Also have you given any thought to what SilvrEclipse said about the 2.4 4g64? I mean that would be almost just as good as you having a factory turbo e-ride
