Cool Opinions on a T3 super 60

What are your opinions on the T3 super 60 on a D16. I thiink my T3/T4 is a bit big, and it also has a blown seal, so i am thinking of switching it up due to the fact that a super 60 will cost about the same or less than a rebuild.
This is my turbo:

That is a good turbo for a d series. That is what I would have been upgrading too. Spool well and make great power.

t3 super 60=good streetable power, with good spool time.

t3t4=goos top end with slow spool, more for high hp setups.

i say go with a super 60 for anuything under 275whp

sorry if that doensty make sense, im a little dunrk

Ok I got the turbo on my car and its great. Much faster and realistic than the other one. 48/hot and 60/cold. I hit 9psi by 4000 rpms. I love it. It actualy drives like the turbo belongs there.

If your t3t4 had a .48 hotside it would react similar.
