How much power are you looking for? RX6, GT35R and GT35R(T4) are all good choices if you are looking for quick boost response and 380-450 rwhp.

A-Spec GT35R T4 for sure, or go with A-Spec's new 500R kit
With the T4 I made 436 at 16psi, 16psi by about 3500rpm give or take a few rpm (damaged turbine wheel)
With the 500R I've made 448 at roughly a bar thus far at around 3400-3500 rpm and around 250ft-lbs of torque below 4k

old school and much cheaper 60-1 or t04e 60 trim can get you into the 11's with full boost between 3300~3800 dependant on set up (manifold type, port work, tunning etc). Of corse, the GT35R and the gt35r t4 variants can do the same and hold more potentual to make more power (close to 500) for added cost.

^ depends.
i fit's a t3 35r, i'd rather go with a t61, or something in that area. the t3 turbine just chokes it out up top. the t61 is a very similar compressor, but with a p-trim, you can really taylor your spoolup vs. hp by changing the a/r.
