12a Turbo help

I'm switching over to blow through (was draw through) and trying to source a good turbo.

I came across a good deal, but, need some input if it would work ok with my application. My target is 10 psi intercooled on stock port 12a.

Would this turbo work or be just to laggy??
Thanks,
- Chris

That will work ******* fantastic.

V-trim compressor matched to p-trim turbine wheel.

Will easy go 350-380rwhp (genuine not **** **** figures).

If anything see if you can get a divided .84 turbine housing to go with it instead. I use that same T04B compressor wheel on my S5 hybrid turbo and made 331.5rwhp on 13.5psi @ 7300rpm.

I'd suggest you build it and budget for 15-18psi boost. Will be just like this, slightly less response, and much less exhaust back pressure.
