Thread: rebuilding an sc61

That is right, i get all my big dog CAT turbos there, i knew the owner personally and he would hook me up. But he died like 2 years ago so now they got some of his family running it. The place is in grand rapids off 44th st if i remember correctly.

so it would be worht rebuilding one to keep around as a spare

considering mine was almost $900 new, i would say it's worth spending $100-$300 rebuilding/getting it rebuilt.

I bid the same as the guy who won it we both had the same max , I just did not out bid him , same max bid , damn it

FYI, It looked ify anyways. he didn't want to show a pic of the turbine wheel, the compressor wheel looks like it was clipped. i mean it sold for $250, it's going to run another $200-$300 to rebuild and that's about the same price I got mine used for.

thats true and I really did not need it ... it would have made a nice spare though

since we're on that topic, what are you running anyways?

I have yet to put it but it should be in soon ... I am going to be running a gt3076r on a Lovefab sidwinder with a 44mm wastgate and a jwt z32 72lb program for the time being , and later I am swapping in my u12 with forged internals and hopfully going to an aem ems with 1000cc injectors

my post was based upon my thinking that you already had the turbo. i agree now with keo that you would be better off just buying one used if you really wanted one.

it just looked like a good deal if I could get it cheap enough , and that way I would just keep it as a spare turbo
