honestly, if it’s a bitch to get them rebuilt and someone doesn’t want to touch a certain type of turbo you might be better off just buying a new one… Would hate to do all that work only to find out your rebuilt turbo blows a nut after 5k miles. ---

i’ve had 3 done at Bolland Machine in Chippawa(Beaver Falls). they are top notch, but take a while and are a little high on there price… $350 for a rebuild and balance…seems high to be but whatever: Don or Keith @ 724-846-1290 then, there is another place in or near New Ken that I have yet to go to, but he says he can get into swapping housings and wheels at a good price… i have to dig around for there number. ---

i don’t believe ball bearing center sections can be rebuilt. i think they just replace the center cartridge completely. not really worth doing though since you can get that same turbo new for like 5-600 bux ---
