Default cheap turbo options?

I know cheap isn't good but I am going to start piecing together a turbo kit on a budget that I can upgrade later. It is going in a 2003 sss that has l92 heads nnbs intake and upgraded fuel system. looking to make good power with the potential for more. So what do you guy suggest? I have come across these but honestly I don't know **** about turbo sizing.

The on3 turbos are good but grom what i hear there hit or miss. Im running a cxracing 76mm turbo havebt had any issues with it. A few guys are running them as well. Or you can watch the forms for a deal on a different turbo?

If you plan to upgrade in the future, keep in mind that not all turbos have the same physical dimensions. So if you upgrade the turbo in the future you may have to modify the hot/cold pipes to fit. In short, try to find a cheap turbo that has the same dimensions as the one you will upgrade to.

For example, the On3 T76 has the same physical dimensions as some Magnum, Turbonetics, and Precision T4 turbos. So for example you could go with an On3 T76 now, and upgrade to a Turbonetics 7875 in the future without having to modify the hot pipes.
