    Hey there Rusty, sorry to hear about your turbo problems. Mark S. gave me a website yesterday that has some nice turbo's listed on it the site was http://www.srmotorsports.com/index.html they aren't cheap there but they look like they would do the trick.

Thanks.  I've already been looking at their site.  The whole aftermarket turbo business is confusing me.  I used to think that "T04" was a specific Garrett turbo, but now I think it's just a size, and that lots of companies make "T04" turbos.  Whenever you see a kit, it's always in the multi-thousand dollar range, but I know I've seen "T04" turbos for $450.  I can't find one now to save my life though.  Also, you really get hit for wastegates, manifolds, and other turbo options.  By the time you add special ball bearings, inconel wheels, etc, the price just skyrockets.
