Default replacement turbo??

Hi guys am running a standard T3 at the mo on my S2 track car but looks like the oil seals have gone as am getting puffs of greyish smoke when lifting off after boost.

Now, considering I could repair it from what I have seen on other posts it may not be that worth it. So I could replace with a refurbished T3 or get one with a better spec, but which one if I do?

The car is reasonably standard on a strong engine, have only fitted K&N, full magnex, uprated breather and its running a chip although don't know which one. It seems good for 170bhp anyway but not had it RR yet to prove. I was gonna fit a replacement intercooler but think sorting the turbo is a better idea.

I dont want to spend loadsa money either and don't want anything thats gonna be too laggy so what are the best options to consider?
