FS: OEM Turbos

s142nv · 08-04-2013, 12:13 PM

Just putting out a feeler to see if anyone is interested before I return these to Vargas for my core charge refund.

I had some wastegate rattle so I decided to upgrade my turbos, I also have a new wastegate actuator which I've been told should essentially eliminate the rattle if replaced which I'll include if anyone is interested. No shaft play on the turbos, only issue was the rear wastegate rattle.

PM if interested with offers.

Can you tell me how much labor it costs to do turbo swap?
Or if you did it yourself. I have been reading that you have to lift the engine and do some insane stuff costing you $6k to change turbos. Is this accurate?

Replacing a turbo is extensive work, especially if you don't know much about cars. I heard from indies its $1500 in labour and bmw will be an arm and a leg.
