Sweet $&#$% all sorry. Your better option would be to look at a highflow of your ct9 or swap to another turbo all together.

CT12s have a bigger exhaust end than the CT9, however the compresser end is smaller than the CT9.
CT12s have more lag, but I would say they are slightly more powerful in comparism to the CT9.
My CT12 hits high boost (11psi) at about 3200rpm
I haven't had any experience with the CT9b, off the glanza, so have no position to judge.
I would say you are better off getting it high flowed for the money you would spend on a CT12.
Someone around here does an upgrade trade, where u send him your turbo + cash, in exchange for highflowed turbo.

I can get your ct9 highflowed if required.

Definately recommend highflowing the ct9, much better performance if you want a "cheap" upgrade without the hassles of custom flanges.
