K14 is the "biggest" turbo...
IMO it'll produce the most power on an XUD... For the best compromise between response and power, the T2 is generally accepted as the best turbo... Also because of the wastegate design, it's easier to eliminate creep at high pressures...
I personally wouldn't change one for the other, the advantages of one or the other barely outweigh the ballache of changing it... If it possibly has shaft play, I wouldn't bother, you'll kick yourself if you blow it... As said, I made 146shp and 250flb.ft with a K14....
There's other restrictions on these engines that need fixing before instantly branding a turbocharger as "shit" like some people do...
