There is a nice looking Rev2 turbo close to me at a good price so I'm thinking as I will likely keep it awhile and ultimately mod it so I don't think it will make much difference starting from a Rev2 or 3 but what's other people's thoughts?

I see what you are saying but when I modify it I would be going for more power than you would be able to get from a Rev3.So I wouldn't have thought there was an increase in cost as Rev2's are cheaper to buy.

The only way you're going to get one with no rust is if it's had a full money no object resto..

A lot of folk maintain that the rev2 block is cast using better material and is slightly thicker around the water pump so less prone to cracking, However people have had plenty success with rev3s also.![]()
