What oil pump for turbo application?

Well, as the title states, which oil pump would be best for a turbo application, a high volume pump or high pressure pump? Looking to upgrade to a Mellings pump. This will be going in a built 6.0 iron block. On3 single turbo kit with 80mm Borg Warner 1.10 AR billet wheel turbo. Also have an aftermarket oil cooler installed.

I have a built LS2 iron block and turbo w/ the Melling pump. My hot idle is around 30-35 PSI.

My turbo oil inlet has a restrictor, so I have my doubts whether you "need" anything special regarding the oil pump.
