If you look at the design of the two different systems you can see the turbo tie rods are clearly better. If you are replacing the tie rods anyway, spend the extra money for the turbo tie rods.

It will require an new alignment so it is not something to do on a whim. If your tir rods are worn and have slop, you likely need ball joints as well.
