Should be a couple of places in town. I’m not sure where, but I’ve heard there are some. I know of one shop that re-builds turbos, but they do it for Semi’s and tractors and stuff, so I don’t think they have the equiptment to do that small of a turbo. I think I asked him once and he said that it wasn’t that feesable.

i am thinking i should just order a new center section just to be safe, cuz the turbo was obviously ran hard if it was pushing 300hp on a ca18, there is a good deal of shaft play side to side and back n forth so i might just go that rought

thanks

Of course everything is doable, it’s just a matter of how much you want to dish out. He just said it wasn’t appropriate for the amount it would cost.

If anyone is desparate, I can always email him and ask a little more in detail.

Try emailing [acs\_clem@hotmail.com](mailto:acs_clem@hotmail.com), he works at a local Semi truck/diesel repair company here in edmonton, might be able to help you.

If that don’t work, email me and I’ll find a number for you, I don’t have it right now.

I remember sending mine away to to Calgary.
