    The vgt concept is a good one,Just a lot of moving parts inside,Just had mine rebuilt for 1600.00 I took it off, dropped it off for two days and it works great. I used adp turbos in Surrey B.C. Canada, All they do is turbos call them they might recomend someone It.s the best way to go I think they took it apart in front of me to show me the problems. And It had all the usual ones, the trick is to do it before it blows. My opinion from experience is stay far far away from people that sell you their manifolds and turbos and a delete etc,etc,etc, they will suck every penney you have and don't have. you could contact J-dawg on this form and talk to him, and there are others that know just read there blogs on vgt or cummins diesel turbos.........

    Where at?You know anybody in Colorado,I asked so many placecies and they said nobody want to do this anymore cuz it's hard to find the parts they need and it takes more than a week to do so.However if you know anybody does it let us know so we dont pay 3000 and up for it
