escort rst, play in turbo
the standard t3 turbo on my rst has quite a bit of play up and down, i have been told very slight play is normal but this is excessive and its lettin oil through, im looking for a new or re-con one where is the best and cheapest place to get one?

Depending on how handy you or a friend is with the spanners and how bad the turbo is (ie if it just needs seals and bearings, as it sounds like) you could re-build it yourself with a kit from eBay for around 50 quid. Done it myself with good results, videos on youtube with step by step guides.
