Default Help me pick the ideal turbo for my application....

Alrighty, a little background on my motor:
B18b 81.5 with GE block guard, and 10.9:1 compression JE SRP's, bottom end is balanced, has Eagle rods

HERE Is my question, I am building a turbo kit, and am having a BIG problem choosing a the correct turbo.

With the compression ratio I have, I am planning on not boosting over 10psi..so I would rather have quick spool, over huge psi options.

NOW......I am trading a b18b swap for a sc61, I have decided that this turbo is not for me, its a big turbo but wont spool quickly enough (or maybe it will, what do you guys think?) Possibly a sc34, or another turbo you would suggest??

I will be using LovFab manifold, and what not, I want quick spool (around 2500 full spool) and an external wastegate (excludes 18g)

Thanks for your help!
Nick

Check out this site for some B18B dyno info and turbo's used:
http://www.boosted-hybrid.com

Full spool at 2.5k? T3 super 60 or smaller. Seriously? I you want faster spool, you will sacrifce top end... you would need a smaller turbine a/r (exhaust side) and compressor

I would use a GT28 or GT30 or T3/T4 57trim to get the best of both worlds...
