Have a question about turbochargers.com

if you go to that website --- look under the mazda section. Is that price to high--- it would be cheaper just to find a local person to rebuild your stock turbos instead right?

beware

beware doing any rebuilds with your turbos...My first set was done by TURBO CITY and they leaked immediately (have heard from other shops that they do the worst turbo work around) ...got totally farked by Performance Techniques which owns www.turbonetics.com they leaked...sounded like a dentist drill and smoked badly....performance techniques was horrible.

the stock turbos are not easily rebuilt...the turbo shops might tell you otherwise to get your dough....they even claim to have warrantees...but they do not really warrantee their work. I lost three THOUSAND dollars doing rebuilds in a year. I should have done it right the first time..either go M2, single or go NEW.

you probably dont want to listen to me as you dont want to spend the money on a new set or whatever but beware that feeling...you will only be hurting yourself by wasting the dough on a rebuilt set of poor quality turbos.

good luck dude...I say this stuff because Ive dealt with this stuff for a while now and have had nothing but negative feedback and poor results from the money spent.
