You'd have sorta the same spool time as a TD04L 13T, but the top end flow of a bigger compressor, the 13ts do still tend to die before the redline.
If you can get one off a T5 or similar, do it!
Ive been looking into this quite a lot. There are 13t to 19t kits on ebay (I know the 19 will be a bit big). What has put me off so far is would the turbo then have to be sent off for balancing as I would imagine this being quite pricey.
