$1500 to rebuild your turbo? Who gave you that quote? You could buy a new one for half that. I got mine rebuilt the first time for $375. Call a couple local turbo shops & compare prices.

Just go to a turbo specialty shop... I've noticed Z shops like to charge more for things because they have a Z in their name. They'd prolly end up shipping it to a turbo shop anyway, and you'd just pay more because they are the middle man.
