Default Turbo upgrade??

Hi all,
Got a Blobeye sti at about 350-370bhp, looking to breach the 400 mark, good all mods, FMIC, etc?
Can anyone recommend a turbo and someone who's upgraded turbo and talk about pros and cons?
Much appreciated
Marco

Talk to the mappers: for everyone who makes 400+bhp with SC42 or MD321H turbos there are others that fall short of that mark. You might as well go straight to a MD321T or SC46: unless there is something wrong 400+BHP is almost certain, and you might just shoot straight up to 450+. Maybe pushing your luck unless it's a forged engine though.
