You're not going to want to use a hybrid on a BP either. There is too much overlap for such a restrictive turbine side. You need a full To4...

Way too small. For a bridgeport, think GT40R, GT42R, T70, TO4R, etc.

Anything with "T3" in the name, or that has an internal wastegate is automatically too small.
