Are there not loads of different T2's?
If its a basic Fiesta RST one then try Ford places.
Might be worth looking into importing one from the States.

if the turbo is that seriously fucked it makes you wonder what the guy did to it. also saing it's a T2 is meaningless. there are all sorts of T2's. I would get onto courtneay and get the spec of the turbo then you'll find it easier to sort. as for reconing it. turbo dynamics or TT. going to cost you no matter what.
