Thanks for the advise guys, just a few points,as far as I know you can only buy a refurb if you have an exchange/one to refurb, and I don't. I want an RS2 turbo because its a straight bolt on,and as I want a certain amount of reliability and driveability I don't want much more than 300 plus {famous last words}.I have got RS2 em and injectors, and Paul is sorting the ecu for me so I just need the turbo.I have to do the head gasket on the car and need to do it all at the same time.

oh thanks a lot for your opinion andy and jamo! and andy you're right, I don't want to spend more money and do the things twice, it's better to do 'em once, but do them good. I'm always more convinced to go for the k24-7200 and ask Paul for a homefry. I spent and lost a lot of money on my Typ89 and I had to scrap it :'( My goal is about 380 or 400hp and the good torque keeping the rods happy.
Jamo, I just didn't understand that "biturbo" feel you said before! Oh...and that word FAFF!- Looking for a S2
- Lancia Dedra HF turbo i.e. (4sale)
- Typ89 Coupè quattro, 20Vt AAN, VEMS, K24-7000@1.3bar (scrapped )

Have you never been in a bi-turbo S4 car?
RS2 when the power comes on you get a kick very old school turbo, the 2871 is more progressive in power delivery, you go faster but because it's so smooth it feels slower than it actually is.
ALG has a turbo for sale I believe and also so does Sonic. New turbo hmmm you need to look on ebay.de i'm afraid or else your paying silly money
