anybody know where i can get stock turbos quick?

i need to get my turbos rebuilt or other turbos ASAP and so im wondering if anybody had some ideas? also the less expensive the better as im running out of money after replacing my motor, tranny, clutch, and other assorted stuff on the engine. any help would be greatly appreciated.

DO NOT BUY THEM FROM SR MOTORSPORTS - THEY F***ED ME OVER WHEN I BOUGHT A SET FROM THEM

long story short- when it came time for a warranty claim - leaking oil out of the secondary compressor housing after 30 days - they only offered me 50% of what i had paid towards a new set

Buy a used set with low miles. You can usually find them in the FS section for a decent price.

I just happen to have a set in my garage that is in GREAT condition (and they're all boxed up and ready to ship out). If you're interested in them, PM me.

Last I checked mazdaformance.com had them on their clearance list for $2700. But low mileage used turbos are well under $1000, so it's your call.

Talk to Turbo City: http://www.turbocity.com/

They sell rebuild kits and I believe they rebuild them as well. It will probably run you about $800 for the rebuild, but I believe they also balance everything (which most places don't).

As far as new sets go, you might save more money by getting the 99 spec twins from RX7.com. I think those are around $2300 or so.
