Tell me how to spend some money pls.. turbo options?
#1
Hi, I wanna go faster Smile

Current car specs are : 2dr 205 fitted with a NA DW8 block with XUD9 intake & exhaust manifolds with KKK turbo and unmodded Bosch fuel pump. No intercooler whatsoever, just turbo outlet literally connected to intake plus a boost readout for pump. Spool is quick to say the least..

Car already goes down the road like a scared monkey on meth but turbo is puking oil out the intake so most probably seals are gone.. Makes sense to me to upgrade to something better. A nice twin-pass intercooler will be added to the car when the new turbo is here, plus it will be gearbox mounted most probably.

The goal is a quick spooling, reliable-ish 150-160hp with room for it to go to 180-190 when i upgrade to a 10mm or 11mm pump plus ARP headstuds. Would love it to go over 200 but custom conrods are a bit out of budget for now..
Candidates are:

The Merc GT20
The Volvo GT2052v
The Audi GT2052v (what are the differences except the obvious visual ones?)
The BMW GT2256v

Any others I should consider? Opinions? Thanks for the input!!
