good service. and the turbo's are rebuilt, puts them together when you order it by what specs you want. we ordered one for a customer's cavalier and it spools just fine.

I just got a turbo from blaast. Turbo runs fine but the holes for the studs were kinda jacked up so I had to retap them. Other than that everything was cool

I bought a rebuilt IHI t3/t04e from them and it has no shaft play/spins freely.

I had the same problem with the mis-threaded holes and had to re-tap them, but other than that, I'm happy with my purchase.

They are in Canada, so it took about 10-12 business days to receive my order, but they are very friendly to deal with and return emails quickly. The guy I talked to (shop owner?) owned a Prelude SH just like mine and helped me a lot on deciding which turbo to get.

I have nothing but good things to say about them.

I sent my turbo in to them to get rebuilt. They had excellent communication, always emailed me right back, were very knowledgeable, and the prices were excellent.

I sent my turbo in to get rebuilt and got it back even quicker than I had expected. I actually received it yesterday, so I haven't installed it yet, but it looks 100 times better than it did when I sent it to them. The wheels spin freely, and there is zero shaft play.

Definately the best turbo rebuild experience I have had. A few years ago I had a turbo rebuilt and I paid three times what Blaast charges and didn't even get as good of quality rebuild.

I would definately recomend them to anyone.

Hey Guys,

Sorry for not jumping-in earlier.

Those who claim i sell SSAC turbo don't know what they are talking about because i was the first one to be campaigning AGAINST ANY knock-off turbos since the very beginning.

at BLAASTPERFORMANCE we <U>only </U>sell BRAND NEW turbos and CUSTOM BUILT ones that are made from a combination of NEW and remanufactured components that are all 100% genuine GARRETT or turbonetics brand. NO CHINESE CRAP.

within the normal eastern business hours, you should ALWAYS be able to contact me, the owner, for some personalized service.
If anybody on HONDA-TECH needs my help, browse the website first and then contact me directly and I will take a <U>special care</U> of you.

This is a reason why I don’t buy things from companies that are known for delays and whatnot and I do my research on them .... I never said that it wasn’t right that his stuff got delayed or anything. All I said is that is not fucked over hardcore like the guy said he was
