newbie ?: how to compare turbo sizes?

[blurry]

hey all, bear with me, I was told my car has a TA61, don't have any idea what that actually means

is there a list that compares different manufacturers based on relative size, hp level, etc

I'm very new to this, have owned the car for a while and have done nothing with it, body was severly twisted
but I do know a few things about it
.020" overbore, 210/210 cam, alum heads, 3" dp, 9" w/ 3.25s, 3200 stall, spohn lower control, panhard and torque arms
I don't know about the injectors or fuel pump
has 3 chips each labeled for octane

I figure this is the place to learn about how to make it run the way it should

thanks to all in advance

Mercy! for starters as a whole that is a stock turbo that has been internally modified for larger and more efficient wheels. That turbo has a very good reputation and is killer on the street. Stangbanger has gone 10.80s @124 with that turbo on a bone stock long block plus valve springs, 55s, mark jackson 17 row intercooler, raptor, and 9". You sure picked a helluva car to learn with. good luck!
