If the internals of the motor are going to be stock, I would stick with a smaller basic garrett t3/t4 turbo. Perhaps a T3/T4E 50 Trim with a .63 A/R Exhaust housing(with the 4 bolt housing). Its a going to spool quick especially with the smaller displacement of a 1.6L motor and have plenty of room to grow if you want to build the motor later on. It is good about 400-450ish whp.

yeah but not everyone wants to deal with a full swap its easier that way, mini me is a good idea for the money as long as the tranny is a good match.
as far as the turbo i would run a smaller one for a better power band, more usable street power.
