Default Best place for brand new turbo's
Hi guys,
Looking at a VF34 for my 2006 WRX. I want to buy a new one so I have the comfort of plenty of trouble free driving in the future. Where is the best place to buy one? I've seen prices range from £880 - £1200...ebay are the cheapest but are they genuine...?
Cheers,
Andy

This is what I'd replace it with + remap of course (unless you take a chance on a 2nd hand used VF34...)
