I've added a few upgrades to my 7A-FE. Check them out in my profile and see what you think.

50 trim T3T4 is a pretty good size turbo for a 1.8. Especially on the highway I would imagine.

What turbo did you have before? T3?

Actually is a 57 trim 50 A/R exhaust 63 A/R compressor. This is the first turbo that I put on it. I was going to go with a standard T3 but I thought what the heck and opted for the larger one. I asked my local speedshop and they said that they use the same size on 1.6l SOHC all the time so I figured it'd work okay and it has. The only problem I am having is with fuel cut so if any of you guys can send a pic of your inline check valves or anything that may help my fuel cut please help me out on that. Thanks.

All in all with Midas doing custom exhaust and all parts it cost about 1200-1500. Somewhere in that range. It wasn't really too bad. I did have a few freebies such as my uncle (owner of K&B Racing) welded together my manifold and me and my dad did pretty much everything else (free labor). Definitely worth the money though. No rebuild yet, the car still runs super strong even for having 120 k on it.
