    Re: Turbo sources

    Well a real helpful Gal @ Diesel Pro ran the Main Engine S/N 8VF127141 and came up with 23501263 for the Turbo.
    Not 28501263. They can get reman'd "cartridges" in two days for a little less than half for new. They come out
    Arizona.

    Anyone have experience doing this? What are your thoughts? Thank you.

    I bought mine new from Avenger. Was very happy.

    Derek is the go to guy. I've bought injectors and turbos and never had an issue.

    Keep it in the family.

    I agree. I bought my last two turbos from Avenger.

    Sorry. Not familiar with them and can’t seem to turn them over on the web. Also my mechanic
    Is digging his heels in on a new turbos vs reman cartridges. Any thoughts on this? Other than twice the price? Thx

    New turbos is the way to go. You get new castings. The flanges are clean and fit up with no leaks.

    Re: Turbo sources

    I agree with the new turbos but in a pinch the cartridges will work. When I went the rebuilt/cartridge route they just did not seem to perform the same as new. New probably has tighter tolerances which is the key to getting turbo efficiencies. Someone can feel free to correct me but the rebuilt with cartridges just did not seem to respond the same way as new.

    You guys are the best, thank you.

    Sorry I haven't been able to follow up, had some family stuff that's kept me out of the shop. I'll be in today and I'll try to track them down for you.

    And if you know a good DD mechanic in the New Smyrna Beach/Ponce
    Inlet area you could recommend that would be appreciated as well.
    We’re new up here and it is sparse compared to Ft Lauderdale. Lol. Thx
