What to do for a new turbo?

I blew out my turbo today after using it for 4 pulls total. I am wondering what turbo I should get to replace it with or if I should just rebuild it. It is a 60 trim with a 82 a/r exhaust housing on it and it is a T3 turbo. I could get just about any T3 turbo to replace it or I can rebuild it. What do you think would be a better option? My car is a 2g fwd. The mods are FMIC, 780's,255, 6 bolt with new bearings, ported head with 264's crower springs and retainers, 3" exhaust and the rest of the necessary supporting mods. I want a turbo that can get a lot of power and still be streetable. This turbo spooled around 5500 rpm at 25psi I think and I wouldn't want anything much laggier, but I also wouldn't want to go with a smaller one either. I have plenty of time to wait as I will probably just put a ported 2g mani back on and use another 60 trim sitting here for the time being. What would you do? Also, does anyone know how much deisel components charges to rebuild turbos?

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.
