CR Turbo's, turn around time usually a few days depending on the problem/ turbo! Got mine picked up at about half 8 one morning, got a dianostic back with a price to fix and had it back in my hands on wednesday, and they charge me £20 to come get it and send back!

Mine was recently rebuilt at AET turbos in Yorkshire to hybrid stage 1. It has custom housings anyway and was £550 with whole new exhaust side wheel, housing and centre section. Also did actuator so was all ready to go straight on.
