well 15 psi isn't related to turbo size at all... so ignore that...
anyway, the bigger u go, the more power, to a certain extent...
a larger turbo also takes longer to spool up, so take into consideration what kind of driving u plan on using it most for. the best setup i feel is a t3 super 60. anything smaller may limit u if u start building, bigger is better but only if u want to sacrafice some lag...
ask if u need more...

Rep Power: 326 It'll be able to spin no matter what, just damn slow lol...
I have a T04B now, it takes a lil while but after 4k it pulls so nice...

Rep Power: 353 oh the exhaust spin explains it. but what i am trying to get at is, doesnt a bigger turbo mean air that is more compressed? and is there something as air being too compressed for an engine.
Please excuse my ingorance and noobness

Rep Power: 326 It's ok...
I bigger turbo means more CFM for the same psi. A smaller T25 can produce 15psi just like a T3 at 15psi.... The T3 will make more power because at that compression, more CFM is still flowing into the engine.

Rep Power: 326 cubic feet per minute... a bigger turbo has a larger cfm than a smaller turbo at the same psi, which is why they generate more power

CFM has a small amount to do with it...
It's about volumetric efficiency. Bigger is not always better. The turbine's design will dictate the efficieny at a certain psi...
