| Looking for someone to rebuild my turbo?
Anyone know a shop that can rebuild a k04-15 turbo for a good price?

I recommend Kinetic Motorsports too for your turbo rebuild. It's best if you just gave them a call, and talk to Shawn about prices, etc. They work efficient and of course, you get what you pay for. Quality. Trust. lol

Kinetic

worth the price to get it done right, or else buy a new one.

Kinetic was the first place I called...Just checking if anyone is using someone else...They quoted $400 for the rebuild. Might try the rebuild myself with the kit from gpopshop.com only $100 for the kit and diy intructions are included!

It's up to you how you wanna pursue the rebuild but like I said previous, you get what you pay for.
