Most of large-frame KKK's on market are hybrids using Garrett cold side and KKK hot side.
I would say GT35BB is probably unmatched by KKK turbo of that size. Only thing that prevents people from bolting on Garrett's is different flange and oiling requirements.
For OEM installation, it's a different story. But for ultimate power...I would chose Garrett. Good documentation and compressor maps help as well. KKK seems to be more involved in OEM applications and Garrett is going extra mile to please the performance public.

I am thinking specific to the zero clearance hi flow's from ultimate etc as they are well built turbo's using the k27 chassis
