Question Anti-seize compound when cleaning turbo, nickel or regular?

For the directions of cleaning the turbo, need to apply some anti-seize on some areas. Should the anti-seize be the Permatex Nickel (2400 degree F) or should I use the copper (700 degree F) or just the standard low temp stuff? Here is one picture in the series, great write-up, btw.

No one seems to carry the nickel locally and I'd have to special order or order online. Beginning to think that if I just take off the turbo myself and walk it into a shop for cleaning, might be better off than buying the cleaning materials and anti-seize, since the smallest size is an 8oz can (part number 77124). Thoughts?
