Default 14b or t3 turbo need help to decide

ok i have a pretty stock zc single cam non vtec that i want to boost and try to hit atleast 13 second passes in my crx. well anyway my homie has a spare 14b with no in and out or side to side shaft play spins good for 80 bucks it looks pretty good. and i have done my search and the 14b looks like my choice my goals are to take my stock motor to atleast 200-225 hp on stock internals. but im always seeing that a t3 is the way to go also anyway i just want a turbo that can take me all the way to 7200 rpms spools around maybe 3800 since its my daily driver. well anyway should i just get the 14b since its cheap

a 14b will work fine for your zc, for 80.00 for a tight turbo you cant go wrong.

What is your goal for your car? Drag, Autocross or just D/D? For drag, I would consider the t3. For anything else I would go with the 14b. I've had both and the quick spool of the 14b will surely satisfy.
