ok here a web site im going to give 2 links one for the chra (center cartridge)
and one for the price of the turbo Both wil be the t2871r. the chra went down since the last time i looked but its still more than what i paid for my t3t4 brand new .

http://www.staticxmotorsports.com/ga...-064ar-15.aspx


Now it cost me 582.00 for my t3/t4 capable of 475 hp
And heres my rebuild kit regular and the high performance . 90.00 kit is low budget and the 150.00 is th one i would probably do .
I did a lot of research when making this decision .and i dont have to put a restrictor in for my oil .

to polish metal, it's just sanding with finer and finer sand paper. then use some cutting compound to bring out the shine and finish it off. without the compound, it will be hazy. simple, but time consuming.
