Default Will this turbo work for RM?

On a cammed LSA will this turbo be good for around 700 rear wheel? I want to stay with a Turbonetics brand as I get a good price on them through my work. The exhaust side seems a little small to me but it may work well for a rear mount app.

11534-BB Hurricane Vanessa-76

Or

11533-BB Hurricane Sylvia-72


I am currently on a GT67 from STS and it spools hard and instantly but I am afraid I am asking too much of it with this engine as far as big end. Also keep in mind the car is a 6 speed so spool time cannot completley go to hell. If somebody could give me some advice on a new turbo I would appreciate it. Turbonetics is closed for the holiday now so I cannot call them to ask.



As for A/R would .81 still be killing my topend or would .96 be sufficient. I am no expert especially with rear mounts because all the rules change.

The hurricane series seems to be maybe a ricer line of turbos but I could be totally wrong. Would I rather go with a T-series? I was thinking maybe the small exhaust housing will help spool in my application.

Thanks guys.
