if you want to learn some more about turbos i would look into some dsm sites like dsmtalk.com or dsmtuners.com alot of turbo info there. but like he said for a highway setup in most cases the bigger the better. lag isnt an issue on the highway since your already moving air. but with bigger sometimes comes problems with everday street drivng so you gotta ballance it out a little. i know that alot of the dsm turbos are different then what goes on your car but its all about the same idea
