i use a 2wd cossi turbo.it´s very cheap and easy to fit.
you have only to rotate the compressor/exhaust housing.

the 2wd turbo beginns from 3000 to 6800rpm to work.

First you have to do your homework to know what turbo does your engine needs.

What ZVH have you? 2.1? 1.8?
What kind of power are you after?
How much boost are you thinking?
How high you want your engine to rev?
What cams do you have?

Only after knowing all of this I can say whats better turbo suits your engine.

Try Mark Baines, I was impressed with him, no bull approach/advice and a reasonable price. Sorry, I don't have his contact details to hand but he's not too far from the Black Cat roundabout on the A1.
