Turbo Definitions
Ok, I have been looking for some time and I have saw many of references to many types of turbos. So with that said can someone please help me understand them a little better? For example the turbos I have listed can you give me basic usage like drag, towing, dd, etc and what if any difference there are between them. Also any pros and cons. Thanks.

i38r,
t4i,
h2e,
qssb,
gqssb
Ps. if I missed any please add them.

van turbo-same useage as stock turbo, bigger exhaust housing helps cool egts, good upgrade from stock but with big injectors you will shread it and it becomes inefficent at much more than 25 Psi boost, lowers drive pressure. Some think it takes longer to spool.... I seen no difference in spool time
38R- Ball bearing turbo, you dont have to worry about over spinning it, use for anything, direct bolt on from stock and a good upgrade from the stock turbo if your not looking for insane power numbers or to break the bank
T4i- I have no idea
H2e- Is a T4 mounted turbo, needed different up-pipes and the T4 flange. Great turbo for anything because it has almost unlimited modding potential, it can grow as your power level grows
The last 2 I dont know enough about to say other than they flow a lot more air than stock
If I had to pick (which I will) I would go with the H2e turbo, yes its pricy but the benifits out weigh the cost. Plus I can sell my old turbo setup to help off se the price
