Turbo choice has changed. A small company here in the States called Comp Turbo (started by some old Garrett engineers) are producing turbos that don't require oiled center sections, they're self-contained lubed. They spool quickly and are more efficient, and though requiring a bit more money up front, end the need for an oil scavenging pump, and avoid the possibility of a pump failure. They are still watercooled, but that's a trade off I'm willing to make.
