A T28 is too small. If you are going to go through all the time and expensive of a turbo system put on a turbo that will work well. A T3 To4E( capable of an easy 350rwhp ) is less than $700 IIRC..

We can build a turbo manifold for you.

How about on the Silvia that the turbo came from?
Don't forget to grab the rest of the car while you are there.
