Sounds like you'll have a similar setup to me then. Check out the focus RS turbo for what I'd say was a nicely matched blower.
I reckon with around 8:1 comp, .95 bar boost 250 bhp. Take a look at www.wastell.eu for the first power runs when I still had the twin cat exhaust and running 230 bhp. 0.4 bar I think was about 200 bhp.
