Now this thread can get a little debate action going.

The black is blown, and I will have to pay FP to rebuild it. I will then likely sell it then, or sell it now "as-is" for a much cheaper price. Or keep it and see if it lasts longer this time?

Option 1: Get a stock turbo, wait for black to get back, then use the black and sell the stocker.
Cost: Rebuild (unknown, I'm guessing at least a couple hundred)
OEM IX turbo - $400

option 2: 6262 set up. (at least temporarily, if I decide on the HTA86 in the future it should all bolt up)
Cost: around 2.5k total. (Manifold/WG/Dump - $1,200, turbo $800, downpipe modifications-$? oil/water lines?)

Option 3: HTA86 set up
Cost: around 3.5k total (Manifold/WG/Dump - $1,200, turbo $1,600, Downpipe modifications-$? oil/water lines?)

Let me know your thoughts and opinions on the different turbo's and options you would look into.
