Hello. I believe my turbo is failing in my 2000 golf alh. I had an exhaust leak at my EGR cooler and half of the back of my motor was covered in sooty oil. I am also getting overboost which makes it hard to go over 100km/h. Recently installed a boost guage and it's pushing 25lbs at wot. I don't have much money so it's really hard for me to pull the trigger on a vnt17 as they're around $1100 plus import fees (Canadian) are the turbos off of rockauto ok or should I just get Garett?
