Default HELP turbo setup for 00 civic si

i had several place put together a kit for me. i have a hard time debating what turbo to get, wat trim, etc..?

Should i go with a T3 or a T3/T04? I'm only doing 6-8 psi. Maybe in the future, I might try 10-14. Which will give me best result? Fast spool and top end? Also, how well will the turbo maintain with vfac and injectors instead of hondata?

A 50 Trim T3/T04B would be a good choice for a Stock Si. Decent spool, and decent top end.

.50 trim? how about just fast spool? compare to the t3/t04 .50 trim.. is the t3 .57 trim better?

no to me it seems over-priced. im getting my t3/to4e for 375 used and new found one for 515 shipped.
I would say since your not looking for maximum power and not much boost and want it to be very reliable(compared to other kits) go with a greddy kit like a 18g
