Default New motor for turbo??

Hi..
I just blew my head gasket today. A machanic quote $800 for new gasket on 95,000 mile motor. I was thinking, would it be better off if i buy a new motor for turbo. Would it be much of a different in drive strain on new motor vs old motor. New motor is like 30k on it and i'm running it with turbo.. Or it would be the same in everyway if I bought a new motor???

Appreciated for any comment guys...
