F250 7.3l turbo rebuild and upgrade
 
I live south of Lafayette, Louisiana where is the best place to send my turbo to have it rebuilt and upgraded?

Buy a real turbo. Don't waste money on the stock turbo depending on what you want to do with the pickup

Thanks for the advice.

If you are going to do much upgrading buy a different turbo. The stock ones don't support much. I'm not even sure who I would send a stock turbo to anyways

I got in touch with a place I found online www.turborepair.com (Work Turbochargers) and it's a reasonable price they're going to rebuild the factory one balance it, new gaskets and seals, delete exhaust flap, upgrade the wheel to a billet wheel and upgrade waste gate for $790 plus shipping.

wow! its your money but i would NEVER put that kind of money into a stock turbo. for a few hundred more you could buy a 38R

With all of the upgrades I've stated please send me a link I'll definitely look into it.

Google garret 38R. Its a 66mm ball bearing turbo that's a direct replacement. Doesn't come with a billet wheel but they make an upgraded one to put in.
