You should also consider sticking with hot side no larger then .70 ar. It all depends on what your goals are, but 4 cylinder engines want smaller exhaust housings.
I had great luck with the .86 hotside. Someone with the same gt2860rs made 360whp on 21psi. The new gtx3076r another guy made 602whp on alittle over 30psi.

Currently I'm running 93 but will be swapping to e85 after this turbo. My goal isn't so much as overall whp but because I have a dry sump I can rev incredibly high. A gtx series should suit me fine for higher rpm's.

Escort/zx2 whatever you want to call it.
