    Default Place to get turbo rebuilt in ga

    Ok so i was letting my car run this morning and i have been noticing some white smoke at idle .... well yesterday it was BAD... Doesnt smell like oil at all so i was stumped . Well i pulled my intercooler piping and the turbo houseing has a oil film in it... Not a lot but enough.... So my question is where can i get it rebuilt in ga? Its a e-bay turbo , i was told it was rebuilt when i got it but i dont know.....

    Cliffs.... need a place in ga that can rebuild my e-bay turbo.....

    Thanks

    I second them! I've had 6 turbos rebuilt by them, in addition to referring everyone I know to them

    Is the setup tuned?? Also it may be your rings. I know if the ring gap is pretty large or your rings aren't sealing as they should you'll get a lot of smoke.

    So if the turbo seals were bad there would be liquid oil and not just a light film on the walls..?

    it sounds like your having the same problem i am i have tracked it down to the oil seal on the exhaust side mine isnt an ebay turbo but take your down pipe off and see if there is any oil on the fins on the hot side

    Yea, that's why I say it depends. It depends on what they find and if they have the parts in stock.

    I always say no to E-bay parts that are as important as a turbo. Buy seats from E-bay...not a turbo.

    I'd rather have an ebay turbo than ebay seats...

    Seats are a critical part of your safety, and the cheap seats sold there aren't as safe as your OEM ones. I'd never trust my life with ebay seats in a crash...

    As for white smoke - that's usually coolant. Does it have a sweet smell like maple syrup? What are your operating water/oil temps?

    95 S14 with RB25DET (stock boost)
    Old car:
    Turbo S2000 400hp/285tq on 9:1 comp & 11psi
