does anyone know roughly how much it would cost me to get a turbo rebuilt? whats the difficulty of rebuilding it myself? are parts readily available? any sites for rebuilding?

i'm about to get a turbo from a junkyard, and it'd be nice to get it rebuilt before i boost :twisted:


THANKS guys ;)

ya, i think i'm gonna get a junkyard z6 block or something and maybe a junkyard head... i'm not sure about head... i just don't want to have to really mess with it to much after i boost.... i'm only looking for at most 200whp...

i'm actually picking a volvo turbo up from a junkyard your brother spotted for me... i'm on a TIGHT budget :D

what is that? i think its a t3.... maybe
