Might want to factor in a Walbro 255 as your standard fuel pump could be tired.

only wanting £200 for it.its a good turbo and spools very well.only reason its being removed is that im going fo a bigger turbo.

yes no probs mate,its a good turbo,when my engine was being built the turbo was off the car and has been inspected.
there are no cracks anywhere,no smoke and no play whatsoever in the shaft,ill be posting up pics over the weekend.(for sale section)
its a genuine decent vf24 in good condition.
