Garrett turbos are the only thing I have every used myself. Be careful, alot of them have an offset bolt hole that wont bolt to a regular t3 manifold.

and the average used turbo normally has fin wear, unless rebuilt. its like buying a motor off ebay, you never know if it was done right it might run for a week, or a month before it blows up. then again you might never have problems with it. just depends on if you want to risk it.
