Also found a set of original GT2 intercoolers with ducting and frames.







Now on the hunt for a set of K24's

Good luck with that; I looked for a decent set of K24s for ages, ordered a set from the distributor in Canada, then cancelled the order - seems like they are turbo unicorns.

I called Marski, he wanted me to send mine, and rebuild them, he did not have any in stock - I wanted new ones.

What is actually the difference between a Mercedes K24 that you can buy for about 200€ and the Porsche K24 that costs 2000 each?

According to the list you posted, they appear to be different part numbers, I am not sure about the nuances between the various applications, however, after an extensive and exhaustive search for them, the dealer in Canada told me they cannot be mixed and matched.
