Ebay seems to be one way to go.
Otherwise do a search on the turbo you're after and you're bound to find countless jap parts sites with em. |

Yeah buy only good qual turbos as theres heaps of crap made these days... pay the price cos you'll more than likely have to replace a cheap one

Is it possible to identify an original garrett from a replicated one, for example?
Dont they have some sort of serial number you can use to enquire with?
Cheers. |

No idea mate but if your chasing a t3 or something like that get it off a jap import yard as all the turbo's on those motors are garret I think.
Better than buying unknown stuff from E-gay. And at least you can have a good look at it and check it out in person. |

| All turbos should have a metal ID tag on the back of the compressor housing... stating brand, ARs, ect. A dodgy one wont say garrett. |
