Where to buy a cheap good quality turbo?
Hallo,
i have searched a lot but until now nothing found which is very good... maybe someone has another advice...
i don't want to buy from:
- ebay
- private
i am searching for a shop to buy a turbo... shops i allready know are:
importparts, atpturbo, cheapturbo, precisionturbo. Some of them have nice prices but i want to know if there is something cheaper but with good quality, so no ssauto***** or turbocalculator or so...
the type of turbo iam looking for is a T3 60 Trim / Super 60, T3/T04E 50 Trim/57Trim or GT28RS or something in that power region...
i know that "what you pay is what you get" but i only what to know if there are some better offers around...
Thanks
Malte.

Lets go back to the good old triangle of car wisdom.
If its cheap and fast, its not reliable.
If its fast and reliable, its not cheap.
If its reliable and cheap, its not fast.
This is probably the major component in your buld that you DO NOT want to skimp on.
You can't go cheaper than cheapturbo.com, turbocalc(referb), and boosted-hybrid.com without going private. Any cheaper and the quality is usually shot.

Hi,
i know that... i only want to know IF there is a shop where to get things cheaper without lower quality...
if its not possible then it is ok for me...
but you mentioned Turbocalculator... i have read a lot about them... some ppl saied that they sell ssautochrome turbos and that they are bad quality...
price is imho ok, but whats with customer service and quality of the turbos?
quality and customer service is more important then price for me...
