Question Best Turbos to replace my K16's???

Guys:
I have a 2001 996TT with GIAC Stage1 w/93 Octane flash, EVOMS intake, Fabspeed GT2 Exhaust and headers, PSS9 suspension, H&R Swaybars etc.
It is now time to move to the next level of torque and HP and replace the turbos...
I love low end power and torque, what is the best turbo to go with?
The GIAC reflash will be necessary when I do the replacement from what I understand.
Is it the GT35R's???
Please advise as I have the need for more power!
Thanks!

The question is, how much power do you want? there are MANY options out there you just need to decide what your looking for.

K 24's are probably the best option for you, although they are old technology (not bb or water/oil cooled). You have to let them cool down more if you run them hard.

If you really want to get big power go to GT 28's or 30's, but then you will need a LOT of other mods to make the big power package work. Stock fuel system isn't really adequate for 28's.

Best bang for the buck for your situation would be a GIAC stage 3 (IE K 24's).

I think you could easily handle Stage four from EVOMS there are several reps on this board. Good luck.
