Best place to get turbo rebuild kits???
 

Hello, been lurking here for a while, in fact this site influenced my Vitara built daily driver. Last week my Ching Chong POS turbo ---- the bed so I purchased a ball bearing AGP 50 trim off of my buddy. Thing is it needs rebuilt. I called AGP and they said 600 to rebuild it, i know I can do it myself (I have before). And I have a shop that can balance it, I just need parts. I tried searching with Google but that seems useless with all the chinese imitators now, and I'm really tired of junk, so I wanna get quality parts!

Does anyone know a good place to buy turbo parts or a quality rebuild kit?


Thanks!

They sell American made parts. If i was going to buy a rebuild kit I'd buy it from them.

You're going to rebuild a BB cartridge? Is it the DBB or just the 1 ball bearing insert and a standard rear bearing. I say GL rebuilding a DBB turbo; especially with non-factory parts lol. I'd just buy a new cartridge and be done. IDK if G-Pop even sells ball bearing rebuild parts. You'll have to pay $600 to have it remanned by AGP. (just brand new cartridge?) but at least you'll get a good turbo out of the deal that's worth $600 for sure.

I know people say it's possible, but I've never verified a backyard DBB rebuild working. I'd at least get the genuine parts to do it. Problem really is putting new parts in a used turbo. The true rebuild shops have high dollar equipment that can assure proper specs and clearances and such. You can do it yourself with good parts and the right tools though, not saying it's impossible just extremely hard to perfect IMO.
