Default what turbo for b18b swap with b16 tranny?

what turbo would be good for a 97 b18B with a 94 y21 delsol b16A tranny? now I know the tranny has short gear ratio's which is bad for turbo but that just means if I get a turbo that spools quicker I would be fine and I know smaller turbos spool quicker but I don't know which one to get. I only want to run like 8lbs of boost max.. I want to keep the engine stock internally. I know I would have to upgrade the fuel pump but that's besides the point.

Do some research. Dont buy a turbo just because you like the sound of a blow off valve.

I would stick with a Drag or Revhard kit.....the tranny really has nothing to do with it, just that you'll be changing gears quicker...also if you aren't planning on boosting that much and want a small turbo you could just get the Greddy kit..
