20g or GT28

I am a soon to be owner of an evo 8 and will be upgrading the turbo right away. the car will be daily driven so i will not be doing anything extreme. my friends drive evos and STIs and i have discussed this topic with them already. i just dont know whether to buy an entire kit or buy the parts individually. which turbo and setup would most of you recomend?

any comments and feedback is appreciated!

Thanks, Brian

If you dont want too extreme, get a 20G. If you are going to run lots o' boost all the time, get the red.
