T25 to TD04 or volvo TD04HL-19T ?

I recently found a 2000 9-3 SE at the local junk yard. My 99 9-3 non SE has the T25 so I have heard this is a nice direct bolt on upgrade to the TD04 15T. I think the turbo is like $60 so not a big investment. but i made the "mistake" of reading up here on the board to find that there are far better options if I am going to swap the turbo. The Volvo TD04HL-19T or 16T seem like a much more of an upgrade. With the T3 to T25 adapter this does not look that hard of a swap. I of course will do the ECU upgrades etc. I have full 3inch pipe including 3 inch down pipe and CAT. I am running viggen inter cooler, but will go to larger unit. My HP goal is 250 FWHP. I like the idea of the larger turbo and seems like there is good feed back on the TD04HL-19T set up. Do the Oil and water hook ups bolt up or is there mods necessary.
Also for my HP goal do I need the 19T or is 16T better?
