polarbear Member 20 Member For: 10y 10m 18d Posted 07/08/14 07:32 PM Share Posted 07/08/14 07:32 PM My fg turbo has done 48k still relative new. Just wondering when should I service or rebuilt them if I do regular track days but with really good service. Is it cheaper to just buy another turbo bolt on than rebuilt? Since rebuilt turbo can not diy at home? Do they actually sell replacement same size turbo for the fg?
