Rebuilding Turbos?
Hey everyone,
I was wondering if anyone makes a kit to rebuild turbos....and exactly how hard this would be to do. I am trying to weigh my options right now, as I am kind of between a rock and a hard place with this. I know I need to replace my turbos soon - they have 126,000 miles on them. I don't want to buy a brand new set because I do have plans to go single sometime in the future, and it would seem like an unneccessary expense to pay for 0 mile turbos if I was going to replace them before they got to 10,000 miles. So, I am left with two options right now - buy used ones or rebuild myself. I am just wondering which would be the cheapest route to go. I don't have the money to get new turbos right now (buying 2nd car for winter - have to fix that one up a bit), but if anyone has any sitting around or knows that they will be selling a set before next summer, please contact me. Thanks

No it's not Turbo'd
Why are they smoking !? If they work or sort of work, just not well, save your dough and buy the single sooner... if you're gonna spend 100's or 1000's for a Used or rebuild or new... save the money since you're not driving the 7 in the snow anyhow.. I hope
and get a new turbo in spring when you take her back out
