Default Turbo refurbishers in the south?

Looking for someone to refurbish my kkk hybrid C20LET vauxhall unit. The shaft has snapped

Anyone know a company who would do this?

Cheers

That sounds great Thanks very much

So is a snapped shaft really bad? Or is it just the same proceedure as refurbing a unit anyway?

Just had my turbo back from them - and they done a TOP job - well happy and pleased.

Have used Vince before when he was at Universal.
