Where to buy turbo from?

Hey I am looking into buying a TO4E turbo and was wondering if anyone knew of any places to get a good deal from. The best price I have found is 750 for a TO4E with 1.0 a/r on the exhuast, 60-1 compressor, and its wet bearing. The company selling it is Late Shift Engineering. Any suggestions?

A real man builds his own kit

turbochargers.com
turboneticsinc.com

Those are the only that I know.

www.cheapturbo.com has a decent selection of T-series turbochargers, they also sell other garrett dual ballbearing units.

Even though I read alot and try to learn as much as I can, ordering seperate turbo pieces/specific parts like compressor sizes /custom manifold > me.

Lol, maybe when I get to know more people who live around me who are in the know. But those sites are troves of turbos.

All those sites have turbo's with set a/r's, all too small. I want a .96 undivided 60-1, anybody help me out?

Pretty much any turbo shop can get you any rear
exhaust housing you want, they are pretty much
interchangeable within a specific turbo family. All you
would have to do is when ordering the turbo or
before give the shop or dealer a call and tell them
what you want.
