there are loads of VF23's for sale on here or on ebay.

If you get a td05 the chances are that it will have a 90 degree intake instead of a front entry intake which is what you need, the td05 can be converted to front entry though.

Since your standard ecu cannot be remapped you would need to get an aftermarket ecu and get it remapped if you do want a different turbo to standard

If it were my car I would get another VF23

yeah think il stick with the vf23 and get it rebuilt then, any ideas as to how much a rebuild is?, no visible damage to blades its just dumping oil through, hopefully just the seals!
