Blast performance is way cheaper. Check out homemadeturbo.com under the sponsor link.

it also depends on how bad it is... does it need new wheels?

From what your describing, sounds like the turbocharger is toast. With the shaft play that you've described, I wouldnt bother sending it out for repair. Buy a new unit with an awesome warranty! Turbonetics
