Where do you guys buy quality turbo rebuild kits? Ive heard some places use junk for their kits. Also where do you send them off to get balanced. I had my powerstroke turbo balanced a long time ago after I did the kit but I cant find the guys email now.

ive had 2 turbos rebuilt in my past.
never had a problem with them.
i would tell you where i got them done,
but i prefer to promote oil burner members for this task.
i believe type4 and a few others do this work.
im pretty sure you need to send your turbo to them.
or atleast a core. thes guys do this all of the time. its better to have it done this way.
im sure they will chime in soon.

Yup I just want the kit. I want to put on a wicked wheel, replace bearings, get balanced(locally) and throw it back together. I'm still trying to find the 093 ats hot side but I'm not going to hold my breath. I really don't want to pay someone to do the rebuild. I'll pay the 50 to get it balanced but the rest I just want to spend in parts.
