CT-20b turbo needed badly for USDM SW20 MR2 Turbo

Hey, all. I'm posting from the U.S. where all of our USDM MR2's came with the Gen II, CT-26 equipped 3S-GTE. My turbo is dying and I want to replace it with a CT-20b. Someone PLEASE point me in a direction where I can get one used. I can get it from the dealer, but for what that would cost me I could get a GT-25 setup complete with custom manifold, downpipe and external wastegate!
Anyway, I look forward to your assistance. If you'd like to email me directly - sddesigns@yahoo.com
Thanks!

jumpin on the ct20b bandwagon eh, it's ok for a stock turbo. you obvoiusly dont want too much power 250-280rwhp?.
the best place to get this turbo is from japan. the mr2 turbo was not released in australia, thats why we all drive what you call jspec's.
try www.takakaira.com (it wont be listed, you will have to email them with a request, they speak very good english).
or a place in aus that gets jap parts www.japanesemotorsport.com.au <- they tend to be a little expensive with some parts though.
currency conversion at www.xe.com
Good luck

Actually, people here in the states have tuned MR2 Turbos with the CT-20b to over 300rwhp. There's a guy in Florida (Brian "No Shoes" Moore) who's running 11 second quarter miles on a CT-20b. It's a great bolt-on turbo upgrade for the USDM MR2.
This car is my daily driver...so 250-280rwhp is fine.
Thanks for the links.
