i have a IHI VL7 (similar to T25 size i believe) turbo from a fiat punto gt at home,
it has no play, and is basically in perfect condition.
would this be a good turbo to fit to my mini?
i can make a manifold no problem, but is it worth trying it out.
i also have a unused stage 2 hybrid version of this turbo, so if i decide to do any engine mods i can just directly bolt that on instead of the std one.

how do you guys think this setup will work?

you have many choices but............ this sounds good to me the T25 size IMHO is just right!

say for a 1380 A series motor 130 ish hp upwards
