You have a just VE, that's pretty much a drop in replacement. With just a VE you don't have to worry about a better clutch, transmission, traction, etc.
If if wasn't so slow on a P11 I would just keep it because it's much simpler then having a turbo. But VE alone is just a big waste of money on a p11

But really, it takes a while for that sludge to build up in the turbo. And while the coolant does help prevent it, it isn't really that necessary. I'd say it would probably be more necessary on ball bearing turbos. Since the ball bearings can likely heat up and expand too much if not kept cool... but I don't hear of that being the case.
I've been looking and it looks like my T3 options are limited for something small. Thus I might as well go ball bearing, in which case like you mentioned, water is probably a must
