Default Turbo replacement

I'm fairly certain my turbo is slowly getting worse - hearing lots of D24 videos online there is a definite whistle - mine sounds a lot more "whiney" than that - I've always had a whine like a boost leak that I've never traced down. Also, took my inlet off the other day and there seems to be even more oil in the boost pipes!

So, if there an alternative turbo I could use - a modern equivalent? I.e. something that I could source easily over here from a breakers?

I've seen plenty of Garrett GT2256's (I assume I would have to go for non-variable). GT2256 sounds very small compared to T3, but they seem to be used on 3.0ltr BMW diesels, and 2.9ltr Land Rover TD6's.

Any thoughts?
