T38 can be mega responsive on a live map easily, I have a T4 (not live mapped) and it's like waiting for a bus for it to make boost. I am planning to get it properly set up oce I have the right transmission to cope with the power. If cost is not an issue then I'd go for the most responsive and modern design of turbo you can get to match the spec. no brainer really, but speak to a well established tuner to find out what would suit it best.

I'd get your car sorted first as there is 50 bhp missing from the turbo you already have
if you are wanting to up spec the turbo you'll need to up size the injectors too
I have turbo's and siemens injectors as well as some trick maps

Daz,

Are you changing your car to just a track day car? If not, it's worth mentioning you use it on the road too
