Your car came either with the KKK that you have, or the .50 T3 (of which I have a spare if you're interested). The 3.5L OM603 came with a .55 T3.

Although there might be improvements to be made, the stock turbo usually makes at least 300k miles before any issue, which is usually the oil seal. Any turbo that you install at this point in the car's life will probably outlive the body.

If you do find a suitable upgrade, please post here as I'm interested in what you find out.
