    I am tired of waiting for the place I bought my turbo from to get back to me. I need to know if there is a good shop around the cities that people trust to rebuild my turbo. Actually all it needs is an oil seal. Only had 700 miles on it and the seal; went out. I need to get it fixed so I can sell it and get my 20G XTR.

    Thanks
    Terry

    If its an eBay Turbo, I doubt most shops will bw able to rebuild it. They need to be able to find the parts to fix it, and specs.

    They do sell rebuild kits now for some.of the vf series. I rebuilt my vf 37 last winter. Had diesel components balance it.

    I
    dont care if they take it apart and see. It's useless to me as it is anyway. Lesson learned. I ran into some unforeseen problems when I built my engine and HAD to kind of go this route. Never happen again. Like I said a Blouch 20G XTR will be going on my car.
