Hey guys,
My turbo shaft is gone and my turbo is in for rebuild, It was suggested to me to have them rebuild it with a metal shaft instead of a ceramic shaft. Apparently someone didn't change their oil frequently enough. Can someone experienced comment about this metal and ceramic business? Plus anything else I should know or have done while it's being rebuilt. Thanks This post has been edited by delusionz: Mar 5, 2009 - 11:21 PM -------------------- Mike W

its only the turbine wheel thats ceramic not the shaft.
getting your turbo rebuilt will cost you say $6-800 depending on who does it and whats done. IMO your better off saving a bit more funds and getting an aftermarket turbo like a garrett etc. some mob in the us (i think) make bolt on upgrades for our ct2* flange type. see link some mob who do turbo kits -------------------- ST205 Group A Rallye GT-Four, #61 of 77............600hp GT3582r
