Default 2.9 24v v6 BOA single turbo

Hey I have decided to install a single turbo to my boa engine i'd be aiming for 300-350 bhp can anyone offer me advice on parts to use especially what turbo size to use so I get it boosting correctly. I'm completely new to the world of turbos so advice is needed. Thanks

you will have lots of gas to spin the turbo up from 6 cylinders but using a big turbo will mean limiting the power it will make at the top end due to the fact that the 24V doesn't like to go much past 6500 rpm for any length of time before it starts to spin the shells

My brother has a single turbo on his BOA in his mk2 escort.

Will be on the passionford stand @ FordFair so you can take a look and ask him all about it

Aww sadly I can't make the ford fair this year... Would have been nice to get talking to some people especially about which turbo to use it seems to be very hard to work out what to use.

I'd be looking at something like this, not bad money either.
