I know you got your answer, and made your mind up, but I'll add my 2 cents for whoever comes across this. I had a Green on a stock 6 bolt and it was a great street turbo for a daily driven, commuter AWD DSM. It kept out of unnecessary boost just cruising around, but on meth and 25+ PSI it hit pretty good and nothing ever got in my way short of a couple full on drag cars at the track.

I also had a small turbo DSM (14B lol) and that was a completely different animal. Ready to go at any point in the RPM range, a lot of low-end pickup around anything past 2k rpm, but ran out of steam hard up top. It was a great turbo for around the city.

The turbo you decided on should be a good happy medium between a 14B and a Green smile get the best of both worlds. I have yet to ride in a properly setup E316G car, I would imagine it's a blast for a street car.
