The link was already in the sticky Turbo thread on top.
I recommend any of the NPRs.

By the way, if you got a fresh streetported 12A, just turbocharge that engine later. Easier than swapping, and about the same power.

Get a TWM throttlebody and an Haltech F9. It's a good combo. The 12A that ran a 10.19 that I posted a few months ago has that combination. It'll save you a shitload in the long run.
