Default Turbo size/brand suggestions needed. .

Looking for about 250-300 hp & don't want too much lag . . .

I refuse to buy a kit. I'm leaning toward Turbonetics turbo and have been looking at their turbo matrix but cant seem to figure out which one would be best for my application.

Motor:
D16Z6
Arias 8.5:1 pistons
Eagle H-Beam rods
Golden Eagle Crank
Golden Eagle block guard
Comp Cams valve springs
Skunk2 camshaft
Skunk2 cam gear
Cometic head gasket
ARP head studs
ARP rod cap bolts
I plan to spray the motor also w/ a 50 dry shot.

Any opinions/suggestions on turbo size/brand would be appreciated . .

t3/to4e 50 trim .48 a/r hotside. If I were you I'd go with the .63 a/r hotside as the spool on the .48 a/r will be almost to fast. Or get a holset hx30, reasonbly priced and very durable turbos. You can get them used from ebay or diesel shops for very reasonable prices.
