Why would you want the biggest? You can fit a turbo way bigger that what you can actually use on there. Bigger is not always better...Your question should be what is the best sized turbo for my application. Therefore, we need to know your application.

only 200hp? get the greddy kit, good fuel system, and some decent tuning and you'll be into 200hp easily.

To some of us, monster unusable HP isn't what it's about...

Or do a home made turbo and the fuel and tuning and save some cash.

whe you do a junkyarrd turbo you will probably end up spending more then a greddy kit! and you dont know what the turbo has been through! so go spend 1500$ on a brand new greddy kit with some good fuel management and you can hit 200 hp EZ!
good luck!

If your goals are 200whp or so and one a budget get the greddy kit and ic..
Below are some old post of the ppl with the greddy kit w/ the dyno numbers.
