Default ARRRRGH! water pump

So after i go to get my 2000 mile belt retentsion I find out that the rebuilt water pump I put in is eating the edge of the belt. I can still drive the car and it may not be a problem, but the tech said becasue of the way teh pully's edge is is chewing on the belt, I can still drive it but I would like to take care of this sooner then later. My question is who has the best prices on NEW water pumps and are teh original Porsche pumps? EG Laso?

Thanks,
Brandon J

Beware of the new pumps right now (Laso). I just ordered one and they all have casting problems. Bad batch. It may not affect the operation, but I didn't like it. Not for that kind of money. I returned my for a rebuilt.

Is there any sort of recall on them or anything?
