I have been reading and reading and searching and have learned a lot about turbos, but still can not come to a conclusion as to what turbo to use.

I have a d16z6 that is getting rebuilt with: All new everything, eagle h-beam rods evergreen pistons, 10,000 rpm titanium springs and titanium retainers and locks, 1mm over sized titanium valves, balance and polished crank and so on and so fourth it will be a dd and i want to be around 200-250 whp any input would be great.

GT2871R would be a decent turbo for that thing. Decent spool and good top end power. Lots of SR240 guys move to that turbo because it's a pretty bad ass "all around" turbo.

T3/T04E 57 trim works great on the SOHC motors. Our pink civic did 460whp with one.

^^^^ lol. i agree with you. the 71R is imo the perfect turbo for any street honda looking to make 200-350hp. i just wish i could afford one. lol
