Default Turborebuild.co.uk, Blackpool, anybody used them?

As above, what's their service like, I came across them on eBay and they have good feedback. Is their anybody that is trusted more that is better value for money when rebuilding a t34? They are looking at about £199. For a turbo rebuild

Personally I would only use a big name company such as CR turbos or Turbo Technics, pay cheap pay twice IMHO... Have they got a Vsr machine?

So nobody gets the wrong idea......

I (TurboRebuild.co.uk) am in no way linked to Carl of GB Turbo Solutions and never have been. The company no longer trades and he has moved somewhere in Ireland...

We are a VAT registered company that has been trading for 5+ years. We balance all turbos using our own balancing machine, all turbos are warrantied for 12 months and like to think our service is of the highest standard. We have Many happy customers like Brian (Thankyou for your kind words) and hopefully not many not so happy!! If we make a mistake, we fix it at our cost....................Sadly we don't sell extras like pepperoni or extra cheese

If there is anyone who isn't happy with the service we provided and you have not contacted us, please do..... We don't bite!!

As I am not a Trader on here, please don't make any enquires as I do not wish to break forum rules....

Ive used Danny for turbo rebuilds, would happily deal with him again.

I think its only fair that the mods let his post stay even though he isnt a trader considering that someone accused his company of being that useless blagger Carl, which he most certainly is NOTHING like!

Danny asked me a question ages ago regarding wiring up his balancer in fact so I'd say by no means are these a fly by night company,if chip recommends them you can't go far wrong as he knows his stuff from what I've seen on here.

Out of interest, what do you balance a t34 to? I found the Garrett tolerance fairly higher TBH.

So you are aware, your return policy on eBay is illegal (in fact so is the one stated on your wesbite, albeit for different reasons) and in contrary to Distance Selling Regulations.
