Need INFO on the Garrett GTP38R ??? anyone.....?

Do any of you folks run this turbo ( The GTP38R Garrett Ball Bearing Turbo)
I just added 70 Hp Inj and I need more Air NOW:bang
Any ways I have been doing ALOT of research, these turbos are on back order till August, unless I find a shop that has a few left in stock.
Anyway
Does it whistle loud?
Does it sound and perform WICKED?
Does anybody know different folks running different 7.3L Replacement Turbo's ?
I am gonna order the TURBO this Mon the 24th
I have the rest of the weekend to DECIDE:doh:
Help me please HELP ME.

Open to all Options, (dynoed at 346 RWHP ) on setting 2 out of 4 total. The 3, and 4 setting were to much fuel and showed no noticable increase , just fluctuations on the upper end of the Dyno.
My two Mech's ( Gabby of GAW ) Gabby's Auto Werks, and
( Domingo of DJ"s ) Domingo at DJ Diesel Performance are well respected in So Fla and they both believe that I need more AIR.
