These are general designations that you're using the describe the cartridge and housings used. Do you want to stay journal bearing, or go ball-bearing cartridge? What's your budget? On the ball-bearing cartridges, please make sure that you account for about 150-200 bucks for the additional lines.

when talking about turbos be specific, if you just say t3 or t4 its like saying the car had a v8, very vague. i think you woulkd be fine with the classi t3/t4 .63 57 or 60 trim turbo.

IMO its gonna be a very shitty turbo kit if all your looking to spend is a grand. Its possible that you could stumble upon some crack head deals but its very seldom. You might be able to get close to spending a grand but lets just say you get what you pay for. Good Luck

back on topic, you wont find a "good" turbo under 500 bucks. Maybe used.
