Default 400bhp turbo options keeping v1/2 inlet manifold

im just finishing my first forged build and am looking at turbo options to reach approx 400bhp,i want to keep the original v1/2 inlet manifold/turbo entry position.i have a set of v4 sti heads that ive just reconditioned and skimmed so heads not a problem,im in process of getting together all supporting mods and plan to fit/havemapp once got all bits together.engine is 2.0 and is to be used as a road car.driveability is important but if able to up bhp at later date(when bored of 400)would be good.and will use methanol as an additive at approx 10-20% if this helps.
thanks for any help/advise/opinions you can give
pete.

Converting to front entry and retaining the V1/2 manifold isn't a big deal.
You will need, a manifold riser kit RCM or SC, a power steering relocation kit or version 3/4 power steering resevoir, a version 3/4 inlet pipe and under manifold inlet pipe.
An SC42 Billet roller bearing turbo would be favourite for 400bhp and plenty of torque.
