Look under "turbo", there's a nice comparison chart, although it's old, but should provide what you need.

Re: questions on exhaust housings.

So I could technically run a 8cm^2 on a 14b? Would that be worth the gain in cfm? or not?

Could I get near 40lbs/min doing that or would/should I just try for a bigger compressor housing? say from a 16g or 20g?

I'm not sure the compressor wheel on a 14b would even be able to keep up to a 8cm turbine housing. Would probably just make it laggier with a little more top end. It would be damn hard getting 40lbs/min out of a 14b. I have a friend that is pretty much maxing out his Evo 3 16G (with 2.3, 272's, E85, the works) and he is hitting 40lbs/min at 30-31psi.

If you wanted to use an 8cm turbine housing, I would do a 16g.
