Default What turbo?

Basically just about finished my van after fitting rst engine. The turbo has oil seals gone so was wondering what turbo to use? Get this one rebuilt or try and get updated one? Apparently the one on it is a stage 2 but unsure!

Spec is: front mount airtec cooler, apparently polished/ported head, k&n filter and stainless system?

Any help/suggestions would be much appreciated.

Also if anyone has a good one for sale please pm me.

Thanks a lot dan

cossie turbos mean you need a cossie down pipe mated to your system or stage 3 t3 has the bigger housing but same elbow so rst sytem used still.
