If you want a cheap turbo go junkyard. I picked up my current turbo for $120, never rebuilt it, and have been running it more than 10,000 miles. Just know what you are buying when you do.

If you want a turbo from Ebay, I highly recommend this seller:

rockymtnturbo

He gives accurate sideplay and endplay measurements on all of his auctions. 100% feedback.
