I hate to say it, but try this:

For $300 shipped, it would be hard for me to turn down if I was in a sticky situation. Says the compressor is 1/2 inch bigger than stock... That sounds nice........?
If someone is rebuidling your turbo, consider shipping costs/insurance, etc.
I know you have the ***** to be a guinea pig, so just buy that ****!

I dont know of anyone that has personal experience with an ebay k03 to say one way or the other. Who knows what quality bearings/internals are used. Theyve been around a while though and the feedback is very good, so???????
Id take a used $150 k03 over it any day too though.

see school is exactly the same reason i dont have money ever. cause during school everything that goes wrong with my car my rents pay for and i have to pay them back during winter break or summer break, so i never have money of my own to buy new parts for my car. i wish we got paid to go to school that would make life so much easier. i would start working full time right now if i wasnt going to be making more money with a degree. thats the only reason im in school. anyway, im done ranting. good luck with the car, and worse comes to worse get a credit card or take out a small student loan if ur in college.

The ABS sensor is probably dirty or bad. It plugs into the hub and isnt hard to clean/replace.

hey man... that ABS thing your talking about happens to my car to... but for some reason i have to be going like under 5mph and be turning to the left... no ABS light turns on either... my mechanic said that when it turns on he will fix it

Have you had any suspension work done lately? Control arms replaced? etc? Happens a lot when people don'tput the sensor back on right or a little dirt/grease gets on it.Its really an easy fix, just clean it and put it back on correctly. Won't take much at all. Your mechanic must not know too much about Audis[:@]

Yeah I just had the control arms replaced and it started acting up right after that. Is there any DIY for fixing it?

Ok, Update! I now have a running car again! I got my coil packs from xxISPxx here on audiforums and they work great! My idle has improved and it runs a lot smoother! Now I just need to get a new turbo and also need to clean my ABS sensor or something to get that to work right again.
