Default Please aid me in choosing a turbo from CHEAPTURBO.com!

I will be running a Drag manifold, with forged pistons/rods on a stock 81mm bore B16 block with a Cosmetic HG, arp headstuds, and adequate fuel management.

This is a daily driver and a street car so I'd like to have full boost (around 6-8psi) by like 4000 RPM's!

Ive been doing a lot of research on this ****, and actually have a .42/.48 on my car now but I cant boost because I fucked my motor up
In the summer, I will be sleeving the motor.

So thats what I'm looking for in a turbo, and will be buying one of the $549 turbos from cheapturbo.com that is externally wastegated. If anyone could tell me which turbo to buy, I'd really appreciate it. I've been debating with myself over this for a few days and need to make a decision quick!

The page with the listings is: http://store.yahoo.com/cheapturbo/gartur.html

Thanks!!!!!

unless you are shooting for over 325-350whp, i would stick w/ a .63/.60 T3 turbo. Otherwise the other guy has the right idea w/ the .63 t04e w/ the 57 trim(only 1.6L of displacement)
