Re: Good size turbo (cr-x si)
The best junk yard turbo I have found to be, is the 1st gen DSM 14B.
The T-25 is a little to small, and kills top end.
I do not have too much info on the Saab/Volvo T3's, so I can't help you there.
Here is my "How to" article to turbo a ZC....

I know the T3's off ford thunderbirds were like
60 trim .60 a/r compressors| stage I wheel and .48 a/r turbine (auto) and .63 turbine (manual)

Re: Good size turbo (CivicRyda2k)
CivicRyda2K's pointer toward the Ford T3's would be the way I'd steer you. The DSM TD04 and the Saab .42 trim are both on the small side, support 200-220 hp before you start overspinning them.
The Ford T3's are .60 trim compressors, good for 300 crank hp, and can be found on any of the 84-86 Ford 2.3 turbos. Be careful of the 87-88 Thunder Chicken - they got IHI's that are smaller than the aforementioned TD04/.42 trim T3s.
