I would NOT recommend Forced Induction... They've had my turbo since May - still waiting on it.
Does anyone know of a source for the carbon piston seals? I think that's what they're missing.

Regardless, I had a good experience with www.turbo-performance.com in CA. They sent me a rebuilt K26 cheater turbo for a few hundred bucks + core...service was top notch.

I got a K27/8 done by this dude at Turbo Performance and it leaked coolant when I put it back on and after instruction by me to check the bearing housing for leaks before rebuilding.
I sent it back, he sent another and it leaked coolant.
Avoid him, he's an idiot.
