the turbo's you listed are very different so it would depend on what you wanted your car to do.

I am breaking in my rx6 now so I can't say when the full boost comes on but it starts building real early which is what I wanted for a street car that I can drive every day.

everything I've heard about the t78 is it has lag but most people get used to it and its good for dragracing

I would avoid the SR turbo kits they are very overpriced for what you get and its advertised as a KKK turbo(or hybrid)but it is only a holset diesel turbo with ALL the numbers ground off(I have seen it in person and it is not hearsay)

if you want a reasonable spool and horsepower I've heard the to4s is a good choice also

I have a KKK Blitz turbo kit, and must say it is a very nice, well built setup. I start spooling around 2200RPM, and hold full boost till redline.

Car puts down 365RWHP at 13PSI.

The only draw back is that they are expensive kits. ($4500)

you best bet is to "search" as the 35R has been discussed before... besides searching you could go here www.a-spectuning.com
