Default Best place for recon/exchange Turbo?

Hi all

My Turbo is in need of attention, the bearing is whining and the seals are starting to go mind you it is twenty years old

Could someone recommend a good place to either get mine reconditioned or exchanged, i would like to have one at least uprated with a 360 degree bearing so i wont get this trouble again

thanks for looking

Cool, cheers guys, was thinking TT but just wanted to get other peoples views

While on the subject, is it worth me getting the internals uprated other than the bearing or just leaving it standard? im not looking for mega boost as im only running 14psi?

give Turbo Technics a ring and tell the spec of your car and what future plans you may have and they will advise on what turbo is best suited. they are very helpful
