turbo confusion

I drive a 1988 TC with a garret turbo. I am told the later saab turbos (post 1992) are better. Are those the Mitsubishis? What makes them better for city driving? Small for better spool up?
I am looking for a turbo with a faster spool up for driving in and out of New York City. That means I want to decrease lag/spool up. A larger turbo is a waste for me, as I will rarely get up into the high end of the speedometer where a larger turbo would be an advantage.
Can someone please give me a quick study in Saab turbo 101, siting manufacturer names and part numbers?
