can you not get a KO4s?
My friend sent his old broken turbo off and got a hybrid for less money than a new KO4 costs.
Although, his isn't mapped yet.

That makes sense then.
Going bigger would just require more costs anyway.

Scrap your intercooler, with it dying like that it isn't worth the risk or rogue bits in it.
