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.

lol. Actually, depends on their turbo but some prices it's basically buying a new turbo from them but they're jsut rebuilding it. Good stuff though, I can't wait to get mine back in a couple of days.

Kinetic's sister company is one that has been in the turbo manufacturing and rebuilding business for a loooong time. so they have lots of experience in that field. they are the shop that is actually building the turbos.

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.
