New turbo?

Alright so here's the deal. My turbo has a little blow-by and I need to get a new one. I'm not real sure what turbo to get or if I could upgrade it. Does anyone have one they are willing to sell? Any suggestions?

If you are judging blow by simply by seeing oil in your intercooler pipes, that could be from the PCV which is perfectly normal.

Unless your turbo is smoking terribly and/or you have monster shaft play, I would not be concerned.

.
speaking of the PCV, is there a way to keep that oil from getting into the IC pipes? and would it beneficial?

I just plugged up my intake hole and put a filter on the end of the PCV.
