Does anyone know of a shop where I can get my turbo rebuilt in the Indianaplis area?

ive said this before, but I dont think a rebuilt turbo is ever as good as original. There is so much balancing that has to go into, but then again I guess you are looking for a shop to do it....I guess thats okay,

Well, I found a shop that would do it, but they want to charge me $940!!!!!! They said they could sell me a brand new one for $1060. Does that rebuild price seem right, or are they just trying to screw me? I just wonder why anyone would get a turbo rebuilt when upgrading doesn't cost much more than that.

BTW, A quick warning to all, if you get a motorset check all the parts when you get it. I got my front clip a year ago from Phase2Motortrend and just now got around to doing the swap. The Turbo had the BB seized up and the Turbo Gasket was only half there when I took it off. Unfortunatly I only realized this a couple of days ago so I can't get them to fix it.
