Looking to get a small turbo setup

Hi
Im looking to get a small turbo setup for my 89 FC totally rebuilt street port engine. I already have 720cc injectors Fmic T3 manifolds for either internal of external WGs Apexi ECU and was just wondering what is a good setup for around 350 or more hp 12-15psi? I can get a hold of a GReddy TD06H-20g for cheap off my buddy is it a good turbo for my goals? any other turbos?

thanks

Why not just use a BNR hybrid turbo.

if you want a setup for around 350hp, a BNR turbo would do great, and its basically a bolton for the stock turbo manifold.

just get the largest t3 housing you can get, which should be a 1.06. t3's are already fast spooling, and you wont cut yourself short of top end.

or you could look into a forced perforamnce t3 35r. theres a thread on here in the single section making great numbers on this turbo, 450 or something like that, while maintaining killer spool.

If you are sweating the cost of shipping a turbo from Canada to the US don't even bother thinking about a GT35. If it's an actual TD06-20G with T3 footprint (meant for an Rx-7, not with a tiny 8cm^2 hotside) you will get good spool with it but don't expect more than 350 on straight pump gas.

I can just Get a GT35R through a dealer here in town so im leaning towards that, but the Greddy is a T3 and i really dont know how fast 350 is gonna be cuz when my 7 was stock i thought it was pretty fast haha

it might be the 16 cm^2 turbine housing. Greddy turbos are rebadged/modified Mitsubishi turbos which measure hotsides in area (like a Holset), not area/radius like a Garrett.
