ok so I havent stripped either of them down to the last nut and bolt but heres why I think and have committed myself on the www to this.
1) I handle Evo and Scooby turbos on a daily basis
2) The compressor housing is physically larger on the 9 compared to the 8
3) I would be most surprised if the larger housing (20g externally in size) only houses a 16g wheel
so my sherlock holmes ability leads me to the conclusion the 9 has a 20g compressor housing and wheel

You can have a 20g wheel in an 8 and 9 turbo

I am very keen to find out the answers to this as the evo 9 turbo is sitting at the dealer waiting for me to collect

pay attention! the evo 8 comes with the same classic "16g" cold side that has been on since the evo6 and possibly even before that.
the evo9 is the FIRST TURBO TO CHANGE THE COLD SIDE IN 3 GENERATIONS OF EVOS. this is denoted in the part number for the e9 turbo. the compressor housing is larger, the diffuser within the housing is larger. the compressor's exducer is larger.
the hot side has obviously changed in varying models and years from the 6.5 tme to the 9.8 in the e7 and e8 and the 10.5 in the e8s also.
now... how the **** IS ANYONE deducing that the evo9 comes with a "20g" wheel? the number of blades? you people are ridiculous. in order to TRULY SEEEEEEE a compressor wheel it must be OUT of the housing. you must measure hte inducer diameter and the exducer diameter, the fin pitches and a BUNCH of other ****.
