Where to rebuild turbo?

Hey dudes,

I need to get this TO4R rebuilt before I sell my single kit. Where do you guys recommend me send it that wont break the bank? Thanks guys. I really appreciate it.

P.S. I don't want to rebuild it myself.

Actually I do have a buyer for the block all the way to the tranny. I'm pulling the motor this weekend.

Do you have a link to turbo city?

Turbo City has great rates! I might send it that way. ATP in hayward? Do you have a link? The only turbo rebuilders I've found in Hayward was Vargas and they charge an arm and a leg.

I swung by ATP in Hayward today. They are about 5 mins from my work. They only offer new center sections of the turbo. They don't offer rebuilds. Center sections from them start at $700-1200. That is what I was quoted by the nice lady in the front. That is a bit too expensive for me. I think I will be sending it to turbo city or just selling it with a rebuild needed.

I got a quote from Turbo City for $275 for the rebuild and ramon from Custom Turbo quoted me $295. I'll see if I can get anything cheaper but I think it's probably going to head to Turbo City. Thanks for the help fellas. Let me know if you hear of any other shops
