What part are they microbluing in the turbo? Again, they spin on the film of oil, there's no metal to metal contact. I hope they are not polishing the thrust and journal bearings.

Not polishing anything. Just Microblue treating all bearings where untreated metal to metal does rub and wear out causing turbo failure. -

When I picked up my turbo today from Turbo Exchange in Concord, NC, I asked Audre the owner what B/W number it was and he said it was #175963 that was the same as a stage 1 PDI Turbo. The next question I asked him was how much he sales it for.....$1,695!!!!
PDI and PP get $2,450 for the same turbocharger. -
Hey Dice, what are you running for that specific Turbo you bought ?
-
I thought they used moly disulfide, hence the "blue" in microblue. Tungsten is not blue.

Yes. Power wise, file, etc.....
