SUPRALOOPY Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Is it possible uprate the jspec turbos or overhaul them? if so what do you need to change? apart from seals and bearing? can you replace the ceramics for metal? if so.To do it yourself will it be very exspensive? as i'm on a tight budget and do'nt really trust a second hand pair of jspecs without being redone.

Scoboblio Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 A lot of traders on here can "hybrid" them I think (with steel internals). Envy, Miami-GT and Whifbitz to pluck a few names off the top of my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPRALOOPY Posted June 7, 2006 Author Share Posted June 7, 2006 why would you want to replace them with steel internals?? are they on there way out?? i'm thinking of buying a second hand pair and refurbing them. so i can fit them to my car with no worries. then refurb the old ones for when the others start to go. Also cheeper if i do it myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian C Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 If you are on a tight budget and yet can balance a turbo up by yourself, I'd sell the turbo balancing machine and buy a house and an Aston martin -Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
