Default What actuator for gt30?

I am currently fitting a gt3071 to my saph and was wondering what actuator to fit? It is internal gated, .72 cosworth style turbine housing. Planning on running 2 bar.
Will use a bleed valve and later a electronic boost controller but what pressure rating should the actuator have? They come inn all from 6-22psi. What should I go for?

And at the same time, what are the -31 actuator for cosworths rated to? I think these are too large to fit the Gt30 under the bonnet.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!
