Is there more people fixing them know or just one guy?
So how much for a rebuild nowadays? The $1100 price tag for a rebuild is ridiculous. And as far as the supposed "indexing" needed when when putting the two halves together, i think that's a bunch of b.s. The parts are machined to tight tolerances to fit together. I've loosened the band and spun the halves, i've taken them apart to check vanes with no "indexing" or associated problems. That's just to scare you so you send it to him to get some money from you. I think there has been ALOT of smoke blown over the years about rebuilding these turbos. These were put together by humans when they were new, there's no reason why only one person in the world could rebuild them in the past. It seemed to come down to parts supply and when only one person can get the parts they can screw anyone needing them. After i sent some rings thru mine and damaged vanes it sat on the shelf until someone bought it now. No way in hell i'm paying someone that kinda money to fix it. They're not as hard to fix as what people think, but you couldn't get parts. My buddy was going to fix his own 66, but of course Turbo Doc wouldn't sell him the parts, he'd only take it in and fix it for BIG money. He had it all taken apart and ready for new parts and reassembly. He made the tools needed for disassembly/reassembly. They're not as technical as what people have been conned into believing.
That last post was not a dig at you Variable, it was more toward the screwing Turbo Doc was giving IMPO over the last few years. I understand it was a supply and demand thing, but when supply is low, that doesn't constitute absolutely screwing someone. I commend you guys on your service if you're willing to sell parts to whoever wants them and doing rebuilding inhouse. That is a complete 180 from the last few years. Competition is good for the consumer. Any chance you could give a round about price on an average rebuild on a 53 series with debris damage. That might sway guys that were getting away from aerocharger because of high repair prices back to going with aerocharger. That is if the price isn't too high anymore.
