Default turbo seizure

so i took my car to hot import daze and lo and behold the night before the turbo took a crap. it is a drag t3/t4 gen 3, when i originally got it, i had a stock motor. now i have a fully built and sleeved 2.0 so i was thinking of just getting a bigger turbo. nothing crazy but something that would make the motor actually use all the upgrades. full is not going to be a problem either. i am running 1000cc injectors, welbro 255 in tank, all steel braided lines, areo motive FPR, AEM EMS and some other stuff.

what do you guys think, rebuild the turbo i have or get something bigger?

hey geoff hook me up with one of these

you should buy my 60-1 that's on eBay:

reserve is only 500



I would take advantage of the built motor and get something big to make gobs of power.
