Turbo will be a TD04
Symptoms are consistent with worn turbo seals.
I take it it doesn't smoke on boost.
If you go for anything other than a TD04, you will need a remap.
Where abouts in the country are you? Someone will recommend you a reliable speciaalist wherever you are.
Second hand TD04 is cheapest option, but unless you know the car its off, is an unknown quantity.
Andy Forest does a hybrid TD04 which is well regarded, you'll need to remap (£350 open source)
VF34/35 are straight swaps, but to get the most out of them and run safely, consider STI pinks and a decatted up pipe. Again budget on a remap. Bob

Your cheapest option is a reconditioned TD04, bolt on, no remap required
