Default Help me decide on a turbo for my sohc

K well just recently I sold my greddy turbo kit after a shity overall feeling with it. Im now starting to regret what I did and now I need to buy myself a new kit or just rebuy the greddy kit. Im looking at the apexi kit right now along with the greddy or just go totally custom. I need to take into consideration that I own a heavy *** 99 coupe. My whp goals will be around 325whp daily driven supported by a hondata standalone. I really dont think greddy could support this but I love how it's so fast spooling. I dont know to much about the IHI turbo used in the apexi kit but I think it's a ball bearing turbo. If I was to go custom I think I would go with a 16g or a ball bearing t3/t4. I need you guys to shed some light on this. Thxs

i think that your goal of 325 is high for your motor first off, and the turbo kits you are looking into, if you want to suport that kind of power you will need internals, and a turbo that is going to have more volumetric efeiciency than that of the Greddy.

the t3/t4 would be a nice choice
