Needs suggestions on a Turbo rebuild shop

Turbo started leaking a little oil, so it's time for a rebuild and a slight upgrade.

I would prefer a shop in SoCal, but will go with a shop out of state if they are better.

Wanna hear all the stories good and bad, that way I know who to avoid.

It's a S5 turbo that I was thinking of having upgraded. The car will be used primarily for autocross, so I want to keep the spool up time close to stock.

I've driven a car with a to4b at a few autocrosses and in the real tight sections it lags a bit. Then when it hits, sometimes it throws me off line because the build up is so abrupt.

GIve BNR a shot. He makes one of the most common hybrid turbos using a factory unit for the FC.

They have several types of upgrades.

Search for BNR supercars/BNR hybrid turbo
