what process did you go through to get these choices of turbos? im willing to bet you just copied and pasted from somewhere. no one here can tell you exactly what to get, and i doubt anyone is going to sit here and do the math unless someone comes across that has one of the above turbos to give some feedback on it. learn how to read compressor maps and then decide what turbo you need. after matching maps you will easily be able to find the exact range of turbos that would be effecient for your purposes.

someone mentioned before that the bigger the better pertaining to a highway setup... that isnt true. if you want highway power you want full boost in the middle of your rev range at minimum. having a huge turbo that doesnt spool until 2k before the limiter wont do shit. you will put down huge numbers, but you wont have anything remotly close to good response, which is 100% what you want with highway car. your goal is to have a broad torque range, not one that slowly climbs and peaks at the end of the band. again, read some compressor maps and you will know exactly what you need.

My turbo came with the kit stage i bought for my specific vehicle, but the company that put it together get there turbos through this company: www.cheapturbos.com

Check out there site. Im sure they have what you want. You might also want to check out flow chart reading for your motor with different types of turbos. Just an idea.
