need help from turbo experts

I currently have a to4b with a super s trim wheel. I am thinking of going to either a super V or a super H wheel. My question is that the hot housing is a kkk #6 replica. Is this going to be to small for that size wheel and if so is there anyway to make the throat larger since trying to find a KKK replica housing is just about impossible.

The Super-S/V/H wheels are compressor wheels...
You can machine the #6 turbine housing to accept a larger wheel (to a point).

What hp / boost are you trying to achieve?

I know that. My concern is that the 6 hotside is going to cause to much backpressure. I have a 8 hothousing but it is for a stage 5 wheel which i have been told is to big for a 2.5 liter engine. I guess my real question is if the 6 housing is going to cause to much backpressure. Looking for around 325 rwhp

Well it really depends on your turbine wheel - but if you have an #8 size wheel or larger, then you will be fine at 325rwhp.

You will be fine with a machined #6 housing and that turbine wheel.
