Default having trouble picking a turbo

I have two turbos, a 14b and a kkk k-26. Im running a d16 and i was wondering which one would work best with the motor at about 13psi. I know that the kkk k-26 is supposed to mimic a t-25 hot side but im just unsure as to which would be better to use.

14B because they're cheap and easy to install and can handle quite a bit. 14b's have their issues like a bad exhaust housing design and a tendency to coke up heavily, but they're made to last at least 100k at 10-15psi. Of course there are better turbos available, but between the 2 given it's 14b all the way unless the K26 is significantly bigger, but who the ---- knows about a KKK turbo bwahaha?
