Default Need advice on what turbo

what size turbo should be used for a fully built for turbo ls (Fully built, everything you can think of) that rev's to 9 grand. The ls is completely built though, anything from port and polish to bearings.

8K they do okay with usual valvetrain and cams. 8500 rpms, even. 9K you really start slinging off some rocker arms.

I know the Nismo boys have rocker arm retainers for their SR20's, which are a similar design with the same problem, but I don't know if anybody makes them for LS.
