350whp turbo recommendation for FC

Looking for optimal responsive turbocharger, for 350whp (dynodinamics) on California 91 Octane, for an FC.
Can you recommend me the best options, which are responsive down low and strong in mid-range.

GT35R w/ .84 or .90 T3 turbine housing.

Of course you'll need all the supporting mods, and you won't be passing California emissions anytime soon.

its not as easy as just bolting on a bigger turbo. as aaron said...you will need lots of supporting mods, especially on 91 crap fuel.

91 octane fuel is far from crap. My car puts out over 500 RWHP on a high compression engine using 91.

I was able to put down 345 RWHP with a T04B turbo. It "hit" real hard in the midrange but died off on the top end. I actually had more torque than horsepower at the back wheels. Current turbo is a 60-1 putting down 352 RWHP, but it is much smoother and holds it all the way to the top. Like Aaron said plenty of supporting mods to go with it.
