This ^

Tischer just quoted me a similar price on OEM turbos.....around $550 each.

I would love to think that RB's will last longer, but I don't think anyone on here has had a set on their car for 4-5 years yet.


Anyone?

Does anyone rebuild the stock turbos and redo the wastegates?

What are he chances of buying new oem and the rattle coming back in a yr or two? It seems like its just a bad design.
