looking for a 1991 turbo ll oem turbo (s5)

I have a 91 fc turbo ll and my turbo just broke. I have been looking everywhere to find a new one but no luck so far. I really want the factory turbo that came on the car because as of now the whole motor and interior is stock and I would like to keep it that way. If anyone knows where to get one or if someone has one I will buy asap. If not feel free to leave the link for any other turbos out there that are reliable and just bolt on.

I just rebuilt my S5 turbo with a kit from gpop shop. As long as you've got a set of VERY small snap ring pliers and some wrench's you can do it. The kit is only $90 if I remember correctly.

That thing has eaten something gnarly and chipped the turbine. I'd expect poor response and a lot of imbalance on that thing. It needs to be opened up to assess the damage.

Rebuilds aren't hard, but there's a few tricks like the turbine housing bolts can shear off and the compressor nut can come loose.

Turbo rebuild info here:

Also, there aren't any replacement turbo's that bolt to the stock manifold.

You should post a want to buy ad in the classifieds section. Even if someone doesn't have one listed for sale, it doesnt mean that someone doesnt have one available.
