I think your best bet is to have your stock turbo rebuilt. You may be able to find a local shop that can do it, or send it off to Majestic Turbo in Texas. I believe the standard rebuild is under $400.



This is what mine looked like when I got it back. Ain't it purdy?

what's wrong with your turbo? If it there is shaft play and carbon biuld up, the rebuild should be around 300, but if the flange is cracked (on the turbo, or the mani) your better off buying a re-man stock turbo.
