What is your goal for the car? That will determine your turbo choice.
Daily driver? You want good low RPM torque. GT2359V or HE221W will get you to mid 250hp with great low RPM torque. HY35/HE341 will get you into the 300's without too much drivability sacrifice.
If you go big turbo like HX35, HX40 or S200, its going to be a dog around town under 3000rpm.

That's intriguing. I have an SDL now sitting because (prolly) either cracked head or bad gasket. No spring chicken at 360K but it ran strong before all of this. I blew a radiator Oct. '19, ran for over a year but might have cracked the 14 head.
This might motivate me to get it running again. I found a GT2359V from a 2005 E320 CDI on eBay, not that I'll buy this one.

But I'm curious, do you know if there would be any upside from sourcing this model, perhaps some possible fitting compatibility?
I see other varieties of about the same turbo, such as this one from (or for anyway, they say it's new) a Toyota land cruiser.
