Help with turbo upgrade
 
I am going to be upgrading the turbo on my truck, and am looking for a little advice.

2.4 L engine with a 6200 redline, BTW.

A friend recommends this turbo
http://www.spooledmotorsports.com/ga...bocharger.html

Which looks great, but it is not water cooled, and I would really like to maintain the water cooling (as my current setup has).

Any decently priced recommendations on a similar type turbo, but with a water cooled center section??? Or should I not really worry about the whole water cooled thing (I have it in my brain that a water cooled turbo will live far longer...)

The specs are .63 turbine w/ stage 3 wheel, and a 57 compressor trim.

why continue with water? plan on doing WOT runs befor you shut it off? just let the car cool down befor shutting off and it eliminates the purpose of water cooling. < thats just me
