£244 inc vat and postage for a full rebuild ??????, wheres that then mate as a friend of mine needs a full rebuild.........is it a standard rebuild or stage 3 ?????.

with regards to turbos from ebay, if heard numerous horror stories about turbos bought from there cos the price looks nice and cheap.......most people will say you def get what you pay for and the turbo is one of the main things you want to spend a decent amount on coz if it shits itself then it could be a bolloxed engine to go with it.
