Sadly a modern question, but I've suddenly found myself with 2 modern Mazda diesels that need new turbos. One of them I'll probably do a new core, the other I would like to replace the whole twin turbo and wastegate assembly. It's the first time I've played with turbos but have been warned plenty of times about buying cheap reconditioned ones but not found much in terms of reviews for most of the companies selling them! I've been recommended Turbo Technics so have asked them for a quote, but wanted to ask you experienced lot if there is anyone else I should be asking, or anyone I should be not asking Have a picture of my dream turbo Mazda as penance for the boring question!

Coincidentally, I had the twin turbo pack for my RX7 rebuilt by AET Turbos and they did a sterling job. linkGratuitous photo of my FD that they're fitted to

Thanks for the link I used london turbos for my sprinter - lower end of the market but i was very happy with it. London Turbos is one of the ones that keep popping up in my searches. Seem reasonably priced, not suspiciously cheap, I've not found much feedback on them though, so thanks
