Mike, I have not had any problems running 20-22 psi boost with stock pistons on my car. I purchased a hybrid from Turbocharger Engineering Corp. in Colorado. I would call (800-950-8872) and give them consideration over Turbonetics because (1) you will get great service, and (2) they will not try and sell you anything you do not need. They are a Garrett partner distributor and have access to lots of information.
If your turbo is dying, there is no choice but to replace it. If it isn't though, you need to give consideration in spending money on a new downpipe with external wastegate. It made a huge difference(+25 HP).
Good Luck!
