T2 and K14 are the older generation turbos off the XUDs
Both use the same manifold and oil feed.
The GT15 and K03 are the newer generation and use a different manifold and oil feed.
T2 and K14 are said to take more of a hammering than the GT15 & K03
People prefer the T2, due to the actuator design, the K14 has a built in one which can cause issues if seized.
That said I ran 26psi on a K14 for 1500 miles and the turbo is still fine.
Ruan ran around 30psi IIRC on a K14, it survived and pushed out 147bhp
Whatever you get your hands on just stick a new metal Inlet/Exhaust manifold gasket and drash on.
