Anyone done a back to back comparison of a TD05 20g v TD05 18g??

Anyone done a back to back comparison of a TD05 20g v TD05 18g??
As title, power/torque/smoothness/max boost/stability etc etc?
Have an Sti v3 with mods and 20g @ 407 bhp.
If I fit an 18g and remap (Apexi) what might be the outcome?

Better as in more torque?
Mid range as in 4000 to 7000 rpm
Any ideas on what else was done to the car's engine?
You know my spec, so just looking to change the turbo to 18g and Andy re-map to max it out.

im not talking about martin im talking about someone else who had a 20g fitted then went to an 18g

The big difference on the 18g is it can run more boost at low RPM without getting any surge. SO you can use a boost profile that develops max torque with say 1.7bar of boost and then tapers off steadily to the redline. If you do things to improve breathing before the turbo on the 20g it can get VERY bad surge will is real bad news, especially for a MAF based ECU. The 18g on the other hand seems much much better, and also has a higher boost "envelope" on the compressor map.
When I purchased Andy's old car with a 20g on it, it surged very badly, I couldn't run more than 1.1 bar of boost at 3000rpm. I had to wait till about 4500 before running full boost. Much if this is probably down to the large and very straight inlet to the turbo.

I don't have an exact value. I do know (roughly speaking) it spools up mretty much like a td05 but flows more, I should think it will make high 300s around 4000rpm with enough boost, but the whole setup needs to be looked at. Airbox, inlet pipe, boost control, headers, cams, exhaust, dumpvalve and mapping are the only things that will affect it

it seems so simple

Stick with the 20g for a while first I think, and concertrate on the setup of the car overall. I've been playing with the simulator, and I think that 1.85-1.90 64ft time is definitely acheivable on your tyres, but would represent about the best you could reasonably expect.

I managed a 1.974 60ft time today at the pod when the lauch all hooked up and that was on normal pirelli road rubber on 17inch wheels.
I think with your setup what paul quotes should be readily achieveable with a bit of practice.

I'll try harder tomorrow!
2 runs todat:
4500rpm blipping = 2.30 for the 64 feet
5500/6000 and dump the clutch = 2.30!
Still never seen a road tyre shod car better 1.95 for the 64 feet (EVO 5 on D7's)
