Like it says. I have read how a 62/14 will give cooler EGT's than a 62/12. It does give more power too though, right?
Thanx.
Thanx.

The larger housing should make a little more power by reducing exhaust restriction.
A larger housing is always an improvement IF you can live with the reduced response (which is not always the case).

The 14 will outflow the 12 on the exhaust size. If you are lacking power from exhaust restriction then a 14 will make more power. You will need to see what your drive pressure is on a 12 to see if the 14 would provide any benefit. I would assume that the 14 would make more power in your application but it will have more low-end lag to contend with.
