My turbo had gone out and I found this place on Google. The truck dealer was charging me 3 times the money and having my truck down for almost 2 months. These guys had my turbo remanufactured and working in 1 day. Very professional and sent me pictures and kept me up to date on the process. These guys are the real deal. The prices are very reasonable. Thank you Turbo Reman Center team!

How the core deposit works

The core deposit is refundable. On our turbos it is $100–$600, shown with each part. When we confirm your order, we tell you what the core must include and how to send it. For example: a turbo at $1,700 with a $600 deposit is $2,300 plus sales tax when we confirm your order, and the $600 comes back after we inspect your old turbo.
