So Blouch is the cost effective way to do it?

literally bolt off, send them off, receive them back, bolt on, remap and done?

$1000 is too much
$600 is the average price for upgrading to 18g

If you can get 18g's done for 600 including a wastegate upgrade....sign me up. Plan on spending 1000+ for a qulity build including cleaning, balencing and wastegate upgrade.

Quality counts... especially when it comes to turbos... I pay a little extra but I know what I get in return....
I had 3 turbos blow out on me and some came from very reputable garrett dealers...
Trust me not every turbo hybrid is done the same....

McLovin,

You going cheap on your turbos for a 60K motor build? Penny wise, pound foolish.

we actually spend an extra $1200 on the 20gs just get what we want out of them....
I would stay away from some $8/hour kid balancing my turbos.... I learned the hard way more then once.

unless you already have the wastegates, be very careful what you get for $600.

I just had mine done by blouch - $1000 including 1 bar actuators. I had a stud pull out and leave its threads in the turbine housing, and they tapped it out without my asking or being charged. I'd use them again - they take customer service seriously and delivered exactly when they said they would...
