Default Paging Harlan

Harlan, is is true that you sent one of your turbos to somewhere in Australia for repair ? If so, do you mind giving me/us some details such as the company name and contact info. Did it take forever ? Would you recommend them to others ? Thanks.

He sent it back to the manufacturer, Incon. Incon has pretty much gone out of business, and screwed about 40 people out of thousands of dollars. Stay away from them.

I am pretty sure Harlan did not send his turbos back to Incon (Scott did and they were just sent back to garrett). They could not rebuild one even if they were in business. Harlan just had his rebuilt I think for excessive play in the bearings.

Gary,

I think that he is referring to when Matt was first installing his kit and found that one of the CHRAs was damaged...not his last freshening.

You're right on the money on mine though! I sent mine to Tom and he forwarded them on to Dave who sent them to Garrett for examination...they never did discover why mine ate itself.

YTT,

As everyone has said, Incon is out of business...so there is now no TT option for the Camaro.

If you are just looking for a place to rebuild a turbo then you can try Precision Turbo or Turbonetics, they may be able to help you out.

Correct

The initial new CHRA was an Incon replacement. That was nearly 2 years ago when they were still around.

I recently had both of them freshened by Limit Engineering
