My 1997 850 GLT (LPT) needs a new turbo also. I've sourced a rebuilt 16T which should arrive soon. Any other tune sources besides ARD and IPD?

Well this is where I ended up. the thread is "1997 850 glt Serious Engine Smoking Upon Deceleration" I'm replacing the head gasket, having the head machined with a valve job.Picked up a 15g turbo thats getting rebuilt, added white injectors and a t5 ECU thats getting flashed.
