best turbo for b16 (searched)
if you want 1 psi get a small turbo, if you want 45 psi get a big turbo. the t3 .42/.48 is good for a quicker spool, but the t3 .60/.63 has more power potential. It really depends on what you want to do with it, how much power you want to make and where in the power band.
Depends on what you are looking for in a daily driver. My car is a daily driver and I run an HX35 (similar to sc61 in flow). It doesn't spool till around 5k in low gears and 4k in upper gears at 6 psi. This is awesome for me on my b16. I can stay out of boost easily when driving around town, traction is not that much more of a problem in first gear as it is for many turbo cars I know. The car pulls hard up top and I stay in boost when shifting. I have no need for a smaller turbo. A turbo as massive as an hx35 may not be for you but it works for me.
Summary: do your research and find out what you want out of the turbo and what fits your desires, then come back with more detailed questions.

Got myself a T3 .60/.48 and have yet to install it but decided to go with this one because it was better for daily driving and spools up a bit quicker than the .60/.63 but doesnt give you as much of a PUNCH in the high end...
But in the end, I'll be happy with it--as soon as its on my car. :P
