If youre road racing it, or have something else that your car is down for are excellent reasons to upgrade, not just replace the old one with the new one, especially if you can take a day and install the turbo yourself (no oil change is needed, but you can if it makes you feel better). Wait until they have a price to upgrade then its worth it.

I wish it was a little less (obviously) and they had a date could send my hta green in and get converted!

If you are just upgrading from the stock turbo or going down from a T3 turbo the BB option is a no brainer, last turbo you will have to buy.
