Default is it worth my time to swap turbo housings?

well twin turbo for me is not gonna happen. the guy that was gonna do it for me backed out..it went from were gonna do it in a month or so here is what you need to buy. so i bought. then it was next month , next month and now not even returning a email..so here i sit with alot of money out of my pocket and nothing to show for it...so now my question to you folk is this. 1 of the things i bought was a 16cm housing for my stock 35 right now i am running the stock 35 with a 9cm housing. would it be worth my time to swap housings? will i gain anything by it?

A HY35? I had a HY35 with a 9cm housing, and went to a HX35 with a 12cm housing and it's much better. Top end opened up due to the extra airflow. A 16cm won't spool up as fast, but breath better on the top end.

I can only imagine it would, you are giving it almost twice the room to exit the manifold and get into the tail pipe.
