Go for a small 16g... Depending on how much you got back you should be able to get started with a nice turbo upgrade with it.. The big 16g or 20g would cost you more then you prolly got back on your tax return, after you start looking into fmic/injectors/pump...

On the stock bottom end about 400, 370 safely. With a built motor... depends on the size of your wallet. If you dont have any other mods on the car I wouldnt recomend a turbo upgrade. You can get alot more performance by letting the motor breath better and the t25 can stretch a ways before it becomes obsloeat. I would recomend reading the write up that get435 did in the eclipse/spyder forum about modding the gst/gsx.

I really don't get what you are saying, your car has a 4g63t in it. So why would you need to "get one". To get over 400whp you would definetely have to build up the internals to handle more boost.

Your car has a 4g63t already in it, thats a built motor that can support 500 hp not give it to you. Start off small then work your way up to big. Thats alot of mistakes people make if this is your daily driver I wouldnt make it with over 350hp because its going to suck gas and burn off tires like its employed by goodyear.

lol slow... I was reading his post and I think I got lost at the same point
Seriously though.. a small 16g is perfect for you for now... It will give you over 300 hp and it wont kill you with turbo lag...

I under stand your trying to ask a Q but i would suggest proof reading before you post. Your saying that your going to get the 4g63t but the gst comes with a 4g63t already in it.

if you would read what slow 420a said u would understand. he saying you have the 4G63T motor already in your car that can support 400 horse power with the right mods, why would you want to just run and go buy the motor that can support 500 horse power but you dont know that much about your car. start out small first and when you start learning more move up. dont just buy the biggest motor and slap on the biggest turbo and think its gonna give u 400 horsepower theres more,and if you drive you car daily to work and school and your on a budget 400 horsepower might be a problem due to the amount of gas its gonna suck.
