Which turbo kit to get?

This is my current engine and fuel system. I have a Buschur Racing 2.3L shortblock, Buschur Racing Race Head, 272I/280E HKS Cams, 1000cc injectors, Walbro 255lph fuel pump, HKS DLI 2, APS Intercooler, and AEM EMS converted to speed density. I am wondering what the concensus of the community would be for a recommended turbo kit with my current setup.

I voted 37r because I know someone with that same setup and it rips. Personally though, if I had a 2.3 I would go with a 30r, just because your redline is lower, and i think a 30r reaching peak boost at like 3700 rpm and carrying all the way to 8k would be fun as hell.

I also was thinking about retracting my previous statement due to the stroker redline...maybe a 35r would be the better bit, but im not sure how the 37r will spool for the stroker, a 2.0 is a different story

AMS's uses the 37r with the stroker a lot. Danimal got into the mid-high 9's with the 2.3 37r combo

Exactly, it is still a deadly combo. Something about not being able to get to 30 psi on meth until like 5k rpms is not that great for daily driveability. Im personally thinking about a 40r on a built 2.0l motor, way up the road. At that point I will have a beater though and wont daily the evo anymore, so it wont matter to me.
