Unless you are looking into twins I can't think that a turbo off of a semi will be what your looking for.

We need more information. More than likely, the turbo will be to big for your application. It says 5" exhaust, so you'd need a bigger downpipe.

It's an S300 with a T-6 foot?

Yeah they are a wierd little turbo with a huge ex housing and a 58060mm compressor wheel. I work on a e-7 yard truck that is running that same wierdo turbo. It wouldnt even be useful in a set of twins
