Default smaller size turbo kits question

This is not me shopping, but I am curious about this.
Both PE and JWT TT kits have turbos on the smaller side, so therefore the spoolup is very quick. How do they compare side by side (assuming that EMS/fuel systems are same, same boost level, cast manifolds on PE). The car from the Z mag shootout was performing, lets just say, less the perfectly, so that is not a good example.
What do you people think?

none of them are small until you are ready to go over 600 hp

I meant "small" as opposed to Greddy or SFR. APS I would put in between.

Bigger turbo just means bigger lag (IMO)

I was suprised with my turbo kit, I don't even notice any lag at all. Just push the pedal, and your boosted.
