well, considering how terribly laggy a WRX is.. and it is 2L.. and you are putting it on a 1.6...
it will prolly be even laggier..
the 3SGTE's are much less laggy than a WRX, both being 2L.. and still make 190kw
maybe look at later model CT26 or even a properly sized GT?

Umm...have you driven a later model WRX? You only have to think about stabbing the throttle and the turbo starts spooling. I dare say a TD04 from a later model WRX would be very nice on a 4AGTE.

Probably more to do with the weight of the car. Gf's got a MY99 which is the old shape which is a good 100kg less. Around the 2-2500rpm mark it's starting to boogie. Now if you thought the later model ones were laggy, try driving an early one

the skyline turbos have ceramic exhaust wheels so they dont like running much more than 14psi before they fall apart.
A t28 is a good size for the gze makes pleanty of hp

the td04 is a popular upgrade for GT starlets (1.3L) and they come on full boost by about 3-3500 rpm according to those running them, so i dont think it would be laggy at all on a 1.6L provided it flows well

search, this has been covered more times than almost any topic on Toymods 
WRX TD04 is really not a bad turbo at all on the 4A, as d-shiznit mentioned, their lag in their original application is mostly caused by the massively long exhaust manifolds on the boxer motor.
S15 BB T28 has been proven time and time again to be an excellent all round performer, capable of fast response & 180rwkw.
