Plan on going a little larger.
With twin 1.8 turbos, plan on running out of steam around 4000 RPM on a 5.7.
However, you'll have major torque & boost by approx 2,000 rpm.
Use a 2.2 mopar or 2.6 mitsu unit.  There is always the Toyota CT26 that
was a little loose for the 2.2 (2.0?)MR2, and a little tight for the 3.0 
Supra..
Good all-around unit though.
