WARNING: Maximum allowable turbocharger speed is 186krpm. The use of this product above max turbocharger speed is at the owner’s risk, and can result in damage and premature failure.

Testimonials

This guys are hands down the best turbo specialist in South Florida. Well worth the 2 hours drive. Got my Perkins Marine turbo Remanufactured and all I can say is wow. From a rust bucket to a brand new looking turbo in 3 days exactly. Just as promised, and the best part is I saved over $1k compared to the cheapest price I could find. They just got a life long customer.
If you are looking for a true turbo specialist, give these guys a call. Highly recommend them!
