Other TURBO options for a classic 1993?
As above really...
What are my options for a replacement, currently a TD05?
Any thing considered. 18/20g, IHI, Garrett, etc etc.

the main issue with changing the turbo on the earlier 92~96 car is the entry to the turbo. The original turbo is top entry.. 99% of replacements will be front entry.. two choices.. fit a 90degree bend to the front of the front entry turbo and therefore make it equivalent to a top entry or fit a front entry inlet pipe which will involve a fair amount of work with the power steering resevior, fuel lines etc..
the IHI turbos are not going to be hugely different to the standard turbo, the VF43 is larger but the other not a million miles away from what you can get with the standard turbo.. 18g or 20g are a nice step up.
However what boost and mods are you running on the TD05 as there maybe potential still to come with the standard turbo.
