    TDI Passats are common as grass, youll probably find at least 2/3 in any breakers yard, rip the turbo outta one of them itll save you sh!tloads on getting yours recon'd

    Speaking on this... I had a leak in my turbo a while back that was unable to get fixed.

    Was told to get a new one.

    Any ideas where and how much I'd be looking at?

    I have a '99 Vw GTi
