Default what is a good Turbo?

What is a good turbocharger that I could pick up for a 99 SI? One that would give me a noticable power increase and also cheap? What is the cheapest Turbo that I could get for this car? and how would it effect MPG?

18g is small, cheap, and if running stock internals should be just big enough.

What's the difference between the T04e and a T04D? If you don't mind me asking.
