Tang vs On center T4 housing.

I just got my turbonetics turbo in from ForcedInductions. Its a TC78. I got a .96 A/R on center but after getting it I dont know how good it will work. It seems like a Tang exhaust housing would flow alot beter. Has anybody tryed both and found any results. This On center T4 housing looks really restrictive.

Thanks

Justin.

I have a remote turbo Y-pipe that I bought off of dave(quicksilverado). It was made for a On center T4 housing. If I use a Tang housing I think it will set closer to the ground. I haven't ever seen a On center turbo before and didnt think it was that big of a deal. After getting and looking at it I wasn't sure if it was a good thing.
