Default any engine builders use borg warner turbos

as above really i need to have a chat with some builders regarding what size borg warner turbo and what engine mods will need to be done. The reason i ask is to find out how the two may feel to drive. If i choose the larger one is there some tricks u can do to reduce lag or am i better getting smaller turbo to eliminate lag but run it at its max. I know cams help hence the need to chat with a builder before i source the turbo. I will need them to carry out the engine work too. Cheers luke
