"better" as in faster spool? capable of more boost? better adiabatic efficiency? what do you mean "better"? a turbos a turbo more or less if you dont have a goal in mind (fast spool, lots of air flow, etc)

edit: and a td06 is the exhasut housing....a s16g is the compressor housing...cant really compare the two but a s16g compressor (in my case) is a td05 exhaust housing...so a obvious diff is faster spool

good point. try this.. is a TD06 17c a better turbo than the TD05 16g, in terms of spool-up and max efficient HP, by comparison with a TD06 20g.

is a TD06 17c close enough to the TD06 20g that if i could get one for half the price of a 20g, that it would make it worth it?

It should be a good turbo to use. I don't know of any 2GNT using one with the HRC kit, so you'd be on your own on this one. The Super 16G you're using now has a 10 cm^2 TD05H exhaust housing with the Mitsu/GM spec T3 flange and internal wastegate. If you use another turbo, make sure it has the same turbine inlet flange, wastegate, and downpipe bolt pattern. The GM Typhoon/Syclone trucks used 17c turbos with a similar setup, but using 14 cm^2 turbine housings... which is really too big for your application IMO.

I say stick with the S16G.

Actually the TD05H or TD06H part refers to the Compressor housing itself... NOT the exhaust housing... emoji

The Mitsu turbo part numbers don't give any obvious info about the exhaust housing unless you ave the numbers off it...

And yes the 17C was generally a Starion turbo...
