my current turbo is a tdo5 big 16g but the seals or rings blown in it, but for pretty much the same price as a rebuild i can get a td05 20g
what do you guys reckon?

is the 20g new or 2nd hand?
I think i'd go for whichever option is better condition
eg.
rebuilt 16g over 2nd hand 20g
new 20g over rebuilt 16g
clearly I have no idea about turbos, but the theory I applied should work

depends on the application,
how serious is the engine?
Standard GZE with a turbo?
Head work and cams?
Street car or track weapon?
Cant suggest a turbo unless you know what it's for.
