turbo selection issue

Alright folks, im trying to narrow down my turbo choice right now since ive had an entire week to look. im trying to stay in the range of 400-700. ive mainly been looking at the Precision turbo line being that they have garrett parts and from wut ive seen they perform just as good or better. i would love to get another gt30 turbo but brand new they cost too much.. Precisions are basically half the cost and perform just as well i just cant chose which one to get..

precision sc 34- typically runs about 600-700 from wut ive seen
http://www.maperformance.com/pte-sc3...bocharger.html

precision sc 50- 550 shipped on ebay brand new. not a fake

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/T3-T0...Q5fAccessories

precision sc 60-around 800-700 new. i think this one is the most similar to the gt30.

its confusing to me cuz im not sure why the sc 50 costs less than the 34. im still trying to compare the specs on them to figure it out. but wut do u guys think?

Can't say I've ever heard of teflon tape causing issues before.
