Turbocharger.com does really good work. We use them on our turbos when they need to be rebuilt.

I remember that place, I got my turbo rebuilt from them almost 8 years ago, but wasn't it a different company then?

ls1ChevyII1963, still waiting for you to bring that beast out so I can tag mine with you too.

That is good to know. I have a few sitting around to get freshened up, and I had always sent them to Precision to have them done. Having someone local will be a big time saver.
