3s-gte vs 3s-gtte

One question though for the swappers out there. would it be better to get the 3s-gtte? or get a 3s-gte and add the extra T later? ☼CHRI§☼

here's a questions for you guys then:

if someone wanted to upgrade the turbo on a 3s-gte, where would he find a suitable turbo? from what car? what kind of gains would you expect? would it be a reasonable way of getting more power or just a waste of money/time?

this has prolly been mentioned somewhere else before but it would be nice to have some actual discussion on this topic as well as maybe concrete all of the information

a good article to go for this reference is the SCC issue entitled "crazy boost" it shows how to properly map a turbo and find where your motor would lie on the boost curve and how to properly calculate which turbo size/trim to use. if youre not mathamatically inclined enough than most companies such as Greddy HKS turboxs etc when advertising will list the best suitable situation for the turbo. gains range depending on what the purpose you want the turbo to serve. it all depends on the application.
