Such is the case with my standard turbo.I have been saving rigoursly for a new engine, bought a high mount and dump, but don't have enought to buy the new turbo and make new lines etc.What are my options iwth getting this standard one re-cored? Where can I source the core form and what sort of $$$$ ??What do you think that I should do?Cheers Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
