Turbo

The turbo went out last night in my 6 ltr. Does anyone know if it can be replaced with something better than factory or just match it and replace it?

Oil behind the turbo, oil in the muffler dripping out on the flatbed truck and loss of power with blue and black smoke coming from the exhaust.
