i have just taken my turbo down there to be reconditioned. its only a small little workshop but its jam packed with turbos and brakes etc. first impression they look decent enough but has anyone actually used them or bought a recon off them?

My mate says a Marine Engineering firm in Birkenhead are the daddys around here, they will do it for you.

They did the turbo on his Quattro..........
