I'd save up a bit more and get a new one. I took the chance and got a good one but I know a few others haven't, if I had to get another one I wouldn't take the chance.

I bought one second hand the other week, £250.  Not got around to fitting it yet though, need to save some pennies  :smiley:

it was a good easy mod 4 - 5 years ago and you could get nearly new turbos for 200 quid everywhere

even the latest used k03s turbos will be from a car 6/7 years old now, and in my opinion that's a gamble

as said depends if you wanna take the risk on a second hand one?

you could always advertise in classifieds or keep lookin on ebay or even check breakers an get them to keep an eye out for you...
