So i messed up my turbo about a month ago, ordered all the parts to rebuild it and sent it to Rons turbo shop in utah to get balanced and guess what it all got lost in the mail! ughhh fml. i just got in college and do not have any money to get another one so im stuck driving my mustang unless it magically appears. but with my luck i dont see that happening. anyone happen to have one laying around?

 

I dont have any OBS turbos around... I'll keep my eye out. Last one I sold for $250 bucks...

 

did you not insure the package? if you did you would get your money back... plus they would be able to track it....

or did you use that fly by night company?

 

no i took it to the post office. and they basically told me its not their problem.

 

Sucks... Keep your eyes out. Any junk yards near you, might wanna check those out.

The couple bucks for insurance doesn't seem so bad now huh?

 

well i called the turbo shop today hoping for good news and behold the post office lied. it was 9 day shipping not 2 which was bull ****! but at least its safe

 

glad you found it,how much is a rebuild on the turbo .

 

uhhhh all i needed was the o rings exhaust gasket compressor wheel and a balance. totaled about 300$ with a bd compressor wheel

 

My wife works at the post office, she would castrate me if I sent out my high $ items (chip, turbo, injectors, ect.) without, at LEAST, Insurance and Delivery Confirmation. She read the thread and said it may be a few dollars more, but it saves alot of stress.

 

yeah they got it. but had it for 3 weeks just to balance it!
