    V6 3.3 200hp with 8.9:1 (VG33 Nissan Frontier if you're wondering)

    I have (most importantly, a welder), long tube headers, no cats and full 2.5 back

    Planning on a single turbo rear mount just after my custom non restrictive Y pipe (just where the bed starts), with 2.5 pipe back to the intake. No intercooler.

    Planning on a scavenge pump return to oil fill cap.

    I have ignition and fueling mostly figured out, wideband and boost gauge already in, so onto my question:

    I know it's stupid but Im going with the brand EMUSA for turbo, WG, and BOV

    This is a truck so I don't need the top end, I want to boost as low as possible and I rarely take her above 5.5k RPM. Big HP is not my concern and I don't want to boost above 15psi.

    Here are my choices, which turbo would you get in my situation?

    (Keep in mind rear mount will have lower exhaust velocity and heat yet I want to spool at low rpms)

    T3/t4 hybrid .63 AR
    0.50 cold side 49 trim
    0.58 hot side 61 trim

    Gt3076
    .70 cold side
    .64 hot side

    Gt2860
    .60 cold side
    .69 hot side

    Thanks

    PS. Yes I know these trucks came with a supercharged model but I want to do a turbo setup

    probably anything that is similar to a mitsubish 16g or a stock gmc syclone turbo should work well. The syclone is what I would base it off of. They are done making power at 4500 rpm on a 4.3, and come on pretty low rpm.

    S366 seems big to me, I'd be looking for a 54 or 57 trim T4 with a T3 hot side, .63ish to start with.
