The reason for the larger housing is to increase flow/efficiency after 6,000 rpm. These engines have such a high VE, that the increase in housing size will benefit performance without sacrificing low end. The 1.0 housing will still get you to the limits of the OEM block, but the 1.15 a/r housing will do that, and then some. It should flow well enough for those who are looking to build down the road as well. And if that is not enough, there is always the monster 1.32 a/r housing with the 67mm turbo. But you better get a solid engine before going that route.

Sorry, but that just does not work. There are way too many variable at play.
