Default Turbo choice? ALS/Non ALS

I am thinking about changing from my GT35 to either a GT30, after lots of advice that a GT35 will make huge power but drive horrible on the road

However, I am thinking of either going to a GT30 (external wastegate) and just using it as a normal turbo, or getting a marram shafted T4 and using the full WRC anti-lag system I have already got

what you recon? GT30 and better response but no ALS, or a truck turbo with a marram shaft and WRC anti-lag?

Can anyone suggest any other make/model of turbo that would deal with WRC anti-lag and still give the same response/power as a GT30/5?

don't want much really do I?

GT30 definately. I also think ditching the 35 is a good idea for a road car
