did you read my post about getting the new one for 400? id try that route first.

 

yeah, I did. I plan on giving them a call tomorrow.

 

just to add;

make sure u find the root cause of failure. dont grenade your rebuilt/new turbo.

 

Yeah for sure i dont want to have to again.

 

thats why i refuse to buy used turbos

 

Does anyone know any good Turbo Guys here in California? Seems like a lot of the Authorized Garrett people are in Arizona.

 

did you call turbosdirect? what did they say?

 

Hey Tig,

I spoke with the head guy there his name is Scott. I told him about my turbo and so basically he said if the Turbine is hitting the Housing then he cant do the core exchange (But he still says to send in my turbo). But if i buy a new cartridge I will probably still send it to him because he said can smoothen out the housing if needed which is cool. But I hope i can find someone local to do this since it will be much faster. He is a very nice guy, and thanks Tig for referring me to him even if i cant exchange the core.

Wondering how the new owner thinks of the rebuild?
