i think youll have to send it off mate, hoopers of hanham may be able to help but think they would still send it off :nod:
Ok matey. Worth a try. Price bros are sorting out a price for me but again i think they send em off
Get a second hand one or a new one. Rebuilds can go wrong.
So can second hand ones...:wack:
Its looking like it'll go that way though
You could take it to Norris Designs in Melksham, I'm sure they'd send it to Turbo Dynamics for you in exchange for a couple of limbs :wack:

I sold a 2nd hand one with 50K on the clock for 150 quid its still going fine 2 years on running about 300bhp on a s13.
There will be people on here that are trustworthy that change the turbos for big ones when there is still plenty left in the tubby.
I have heard many horror storys of people paying large quantitys of money for rebuilds that have gone wrong a couple of months/year down the line. Some places charge so much that for an extra 50 quid you can get a nice new GT28R built in a top of the range garret factory using precision equipment not old rubbishy english machines.

the turbo centre are fantastic. Their customer service is second to none - and pretty good prices too.
They pick up, quote you, do the work if you agree to the price, then send it back to you.
I have used them and so has spencer_foxwell off here. They have a website so check them out.

I guess the above is part of the reason why :smash:
Price bros have been getting me a price and have come up with these prices.....lol
