Default What turbo do I need?

Considering selling JR supercharger, what turbo is best to run on a stock block B18B1 for power and reliability? Can I get into the high 13s low 14s with something like this?

I think any of the turbo kits on the market will get you the times you need. I was very impressed with JBsadler here on honda-tech when he dynoed his stock LS at 8psi with a drag 3 turbo kit. He dynoed at 266whp and 216 ft.lbs. My boyfriend, Arturbo, has a Rev-hard turbo kit that puts out 277whp and 200ft.lbs at 7.5 with the rev-hard.
The reliabilty part is up to you and how you keep up with your car. A true enthusiast who enjoys working on his/her car will take the time to change the oil when needed and look out for any problems that may occur. Dont believe the "Turbo isnt reliable" crap you hear all the time. I know alot people who have just as much problems with the JRSC than they do with turbo.

I kinda told her what to say while I was working on my car, but damn she added some stuff I didnt even know she knew. Im impressed because all those times I talk to her she seems like she doesnt listen.
