Looking at gt3076r turbo with internal wastegate, any advice?

title explains it all, has t25 exhaust housing but the inlet flange is straight instead of angled like the stock turbo although it is t25. I could get it to be direct bolt on but would it be too much turbo and not enough engine?
 
It would lag A lil bit but I hope your engine is built before you would put this turbo on
 
its got a good amount of supporting mods but no internals, i dont plan on running over 10psi, but the wastegate lever on my stock turbo is bent and id get a pretty good deal on this turbo
 
all depends on how much boost pressure you run.

as for the lag, are you looking for a car that is quick from 0-60 or from 60-XXX?

sure you would run slower in a tight autox or when accelerating in 5th..but from the mouth of someone running a larger turbo..unless you are in a situation where you would actually need low end power then who the heck cares about performance under 3500rpm anyways..

Might be sweet just keep the boost low so u dont break anything. Make sure all the flanges line up too.
 
no need to run a GT30 with stock internals. Just pick up a T28 if you don't want to get another stocker
