All that said, I suggest a gt47-88. Puts some hair on your chest.
yes i know the big turbo require different manifolds, external wg's, different exhausts, feed/return lines, intake, etc, i keep the 16g as a back up turbo for my other dsm which is currunly runnin the stock turbo ...anyway i also recommend the scm61 or if you want some hair on your chest go with the gt47-88
