The Drag 3 is the most common one. There are other kits out there but seems to me that the components in the DRAG kit do the job well.

fmax without their fuel system. then get either a regulator/fuel pump or a standalone/hondata type system depending on your boost goal. this topic has been beat to death on numerous occasions, so if you want my list of reasons why i have trusted my car with this setup, IM me.

Many ppl have Greddy kits, but not as many as DRAG owners. DRAG is the most popular kit for b-series motors. RevHard, FMax, and Greddy behind them. Greddy's TD-05H turbo is slightly smaller (tho, not that much smaller as most ppl think) than the T3/T4 of the other companies'. It's a good kit, but it's less complete as a kit (you should add a FMIC, BOV, etc.). Someone has gotten 450+whp w/ the greddy kit before, so there isn't any doubts in my mind that the turbo's up to the task of making good power. This was on a fully built motor and pretty high boost. (yes, I saw the dyno plot). DRAG's a good kit aside from the wastegate they give you (same for the other turbonetics-based kits - RH and FMax). I've known a few ppl, and spoken to others, who have had probs w/ the turbonetics turbos on these kits, but there's also many others that have no probs. Just an FYI.
