The turbo on my manual 08 fg xr6t has given up the ghost. What turbo is the best replacement for the stock factory one? I dont want to spend money on upgraded engine bits but am happy to do a flash tune for a bit more power. The car is currently stock apart from a growler cold air intake. A mate has suggested a Aeroflow turbo but I have never heard of them. Would the Garrett GTX3582R be any good?

A GTX3582R will be an upgrade that'll stress your driveline significantly, so it's up to you whether you want to go down that pathway. If you want just a bit more power than stock, then just get a replacement CHRA (as that's usually the thing that fails in stock turbo's due to lack of oil supply) for the turbocharger and put it back in and go ahead and get your flash tune.
