They came stock with the AiResearch aka Garrett T3. 84 and 85 SVO's had a .63 trim size and 85.5 and 86 SVO's had .48 trim size.

.48 generally has less spool up time, but the .63 is better for a bit more boost.

Depends on how much modification. Not sure on stock svo. Here is a link to proven combinations. Maybe able to answer your own questions. http://www.turboford.net/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=3;t=017352

I have never seen any real hard data, but I don't think that 2-3 psi is out of the question.
