You can try some browsing here, an open forum. Locate a Sniper forum and do some comparing.

EDIT: I should add that the datalogs using SCT's LiveLink software can be viewed using Excel or LL. LL is a free download from SCT.

Have you considered what you are going to do about that wastegate being set up for probably 20psi? Have a BOV open at all times?

If you are going to buy a cheap turbo at least get one that will be close to what you want, you would be better off with a cheap ebay turbo that is the correct size and externally wastegated

I don't think you can change the spring on an internal gate

X2 especially oem ones, seriously do a little research or at minimum use the same turbo as sts does. You don't want to spend the money to find out its not going to work the hard way
