Very torn between turbos

Ok, 93 base model here. I've got an upgraded clutch, pettit ECU AND Power FC still in the box w/ commander, Walbro pump, full 3" exhaust to HKS Hi-Power cat-back, Border Racing Front mount, Griffin 3 row radiator, hmmm prob more. Soooo... This is my question:

I have 2 sets of twins. Both of the rear turbos have cracks either at the wastegate port and a crack on the exhaust housing. These are basically junk, to me. So now I am debating. Find a really good set of twins or even a BNR stage 3 setup. OR GO BIG. I am thinking of a single kit. There are so many options right now I can't decide. I have been looking at the Borg Warner S362. I am also thinking Garrett GT35R or GT40R. I DO want great spool-up, but I would also like to hit 550-600 rwhp in the end. What do you guys suggest? And don't say "SEARCH", I have been doing that for 4 years now.
