Cost for new turbo
Posted: Wed May 05, 2004 9:42 pm
Hey,
When the car was down at the garage getting the brake stuff fixed today, the mechanic told me that there was an odd noise coming from the turbo and he took it to mean that a turbo rebuild was likely to be needed in the next 3 months or so.
Is it going to be cheaper to rebuild the normal turbo than to chuck a new turbo in? If i go for a new turbo like a T06 or something huge like a T2350, what are the new costs involved? How much more will it cost to go to a better turbo? I planned to upgrade to a big turbo eventually, but if the current turbo is on the way out, ill get the new turbo now instead of just rebuilding.
TIA
