CA which would be better for me Non-Sequential Turbo Conversion or a greddy td05 18g???

So i got a really good deal on the greddy turbo but after reading some people say its too small for a rotary
set up
1986 toyota corolla
13brew
haltech ek6

which would be a better choice of the 2..
now since this engine is in a corolla im looking for 350hp at most..
would it be better for me just to stay with a Non-Sequential Turbo Conversion setup or a greddy unit?

The single will be better, more reliable , less heat, less vacume crap to deal with, and easily and cheaply rebuildable.

a td05 18g is WAY to small.

I am running a td06 20g and see 1 bar (14.7psi) at 3550RPM.

a TD05 would not flow more than 310ish to the wheels and the 18g would seriously choke at high RMPS.

have you ever looked at the TD05 family of turbos? The hotside is way too small, and most come in a 7 or 8 cm^2 turbine housing. It is smaller than a T3 hotside. You know the Rx-8 Greddy kit runs a TD06-18G with a T3 footprint (that TD06 hotside is same as T3) and a 10cm^2 turbine housing? and that turbo can't even break 300 to the wheels
