Default d16y7 need some help chosing a turbo

i have a 97 civic with a d16 y7 in it with a few mods was wondering what the best turbo would be for me i want the car as a daily driver but want more power out of it i have been reading alot of the post and i see the 14b t25 and the t3 is most populer to use in building your own setup was wondering about how much hp each one will put out. i want around 200hp maybe more

14b spools quik holds to red line nice, t25 is ok but will make less power, t3 will spool the latest make good topend power good for daily driver you could get around in vac all these can make 200 to the wheels

i've seen a lot of nice hmt setups with 14b's. all making 200whp. they are pretty easy to find aswell so i'd shoot for one of those

personally i run a 13t (wrx) turbo on my y7/y8 and i love it. INSTANT spool which is great for a daily driver on the streets
