the "perfect" turbo is whatever suits your goals. what you need as far as powerband, max power potential, etc.

A turbo that supports 3000 hp and can make full boost by 4000 rpms and pull all the way to redline.

the new 911 turbo has the perfect turbocharger(borg warner). it makes max torque (459ft/lb) at 1950-5000 rpms.

Explanation:
A Variable Geometry Turbocharger is capable to alter the direction of exhaust flow to optimize turbine response. It incorporates many movable vanes in the turbine housing to guide the exhaust flow towards the turbine. An actuator can adjust the angle of these vanes, in turn vary the angle of exhaust flow.

Great illustrations on this page:
