rebuilding turbo
i've recently bought a s4 turbo, and i was wondering if i should send it to BNR supercars to rebuild or maybe upgrade to a hybrid.
but i was wondering, can i make myself my own hybrid just by buying a to4b compressor and housing, and to4b back plate?

i figured all the other things can be bought, and if i wanted to port it. i'd take it to this one place here in minnesota called map something, they dont specialize in rotaries at all. the balancing i'm at a loss so...
i think in the end i'll send it to bnr supercars

Any real turbo shop should be able to rebuild and balance a turbo. There's nothing real rotary-specific about the turbo, I think you would be much more pleased upgrading to a T04B compressor, as long as you have enough supporting mods for fuel and tune to run it properly. And you can port the wastegate easily yourself, just get a dremel and a carbide bit.

Hello.
A S4 turbo is not something for just any turbo shop. Just porting the stock wastegate will only get you a blown motor when it gets cold outside. That puny thing will creep and will not stop after you upgrade the compressor. I CNC port the turbine housings and have custom stainless CNC valve assembly upgrades. No other turbo shop will devote the time and money for just a few turbo jobs.
