The 16g's do have 7cm^2 housings vs the 14b's 6cm^2 housing...
I was under the assumption that the 6cm housing flows enough to support about 300whp...but perhaps it plays a small role in power loss in our engines...meaning, past 5500rpm it chokes the engine noticably more than the 16g. That said, the 14b as a compressor wouldn't be "blowing hot air" but just causing a power loss from the small turbine housing (6cm = about .41 garret).
Ideally, i should do some real world testing...dyno with the 14b on...measure power, and intake temp...how much/close to detonation we are...
then swap directly out for a 16g and do the same.
