Default t3 or t3/t4

What's up guys!! for a few months I've been doing research and planning my "homemade" turbo set-up and I can't decide whether to go with a small t3 or a t3/t4 hybrid. I own a 95 civic coupe with a j-spec B18c1 wich I intend to keep as a dayly driven car. I definately wan't something that will spool up fairly quick--even though I've heard about traction problems due to the quick spool of small turbos (t3). Is a t3 with a .48 A/R turbine way to small for the high compresion B18c1? will I be able to rev high? or will this turbo cause lots of back pressure? Will I have decent power up on top? Or should I go bigger? If anyone can help me it will be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Megatronmax.

Uhm I think you haven't read thru the site and haven't used the search button.
Here is a good advice.
The bigger the engine the bigger the turbo.
Go T3/T4 or you'll be sorry.

I am guilty of not searching before asking for help. The answer to my question was nothing but a few clicks away.
