GT28RS, most fun I ever had with a B16. It only made 380 WHP, but it was faster than when I had a GT3071R making 408 WHP.

in this case i do agree that the GT3076R is a good pick....generally people choose them for the wrong reasons and wrong goals. I'm not saying this turbo is the best one for you, but you didn't pick it to follow the bandwagon....

BonerBen had a t3/67HO on his B16A and it made 425whp @ 19psi on 93 octane(went 10.9@130) and 560whp @ 29psi on C-16(went 10.4@142). It spooled around 6k but reved to 9600rpm. It was a great set up for the street because it didnt realy spin because it came on late.

an SC61 would spool really slowly on a B16 and is overkill for the power goals he has. It is a good turbo, but it has its uses....this doesn't sound like one of them. An SC32 or SC34 would be a better pick though

there are other options out there too.....picking the right turbo is a big decision. Make sure you investigate multiple options before deciding. Keep in mind that you cant rebuild BB turbos too....that was my hesitation with buying one. Look into turbos like the one listed in my signature. It is good for about 430whp max, but spools instantly.

Look around more and good luck w/ whatever you chose
