and honestly right now I don't know if I can flip the bill for an external wastegate setup like most the turbos I actually want need. so that leaves me with a new v-trim like I have now cause they are cheap or a new eIII 16g cause they are the same price (or maybe a used one). I guess it just depends on how long I want my car out of commission
It is always a balance of cost, downtime, and goals.

Good luck with your turbo search. There are nearly endless combinations that will get you to 400awhp on a DD w/o corrections, just depends what you want to pay to get there and what you want the car to be.
