    I searched, and it appears that most related threads are relatively old.

    Are there any local turbo rebuilders/retrofitters? I like to get a VF54 retrofitted with a EvoIII 16G/TD05. I'd prefer to do it locally if possible.

    The turnaround for my vf was about 7 days from drop off to pick up.

    I have had Midwest Turbo do work on a handful of stuff from machining compressor/bearing housings to full builds... always with great results at a fair price.

    The rebuild they did one mine started failing within the year.

    Did you derp it!?

    Fwiw, JMA uses them for their turbo builds/rebuilds as well.

    Talked to Midwest Turbo Connection today. Nice guys - said they don't do retrofits.
