18g compressor vs 16g, bigger?

[nazthug]

in a 18g, is the compressor housing actualy bigger or is it just the wheel?

the compressor housing is a TDO5H. but i know FP sells two diffrent types of 18g's. one is mated to an unclipped tdo6 turbine wheel, the other is mated to a clipped tdo5 turbine wheel.

pianoman i believe you are referring to the turbine housing..he asked about the compressor side. if i were to guess i would think the wheel is bigger

My 18G has the TD05 turbine wheel in a TD06 compressor housing. Either way, both are bigger than their 16G counterparts even if only slightly.
