How much power are you looking for? In a t3 housing, your best bet might be a
GT3567R if looking for the most power.

Well you have a t3 manifold, but I wouldn't use a .63 hot side, I would go with the .82 in a p-trim the .63 is going to choke that turbo.

I would first ask myself...."what do I plan to do with this motor?"

If you only plan to daily drive/occasion strip I would suggest a smaller turbo than most have posted, GT30R with .63 A/R exhaust hands down.

A cheaper turbo might be t3/t4 57 trim .63A/R exhaust housing. I have this on my 2.0 ls/vtec but with a .48 A/R exhaust housing has I like the quick spool for a FUN *** daily driver.

If you wanna be a baller and make big numbers but spool real late in the rpm band which will suck for daily driving, thent he GT35R and up will work.
