What do you guys suggest I pay for it?
Thanks a lot!

I thought that the SDI didn't have a turbo??

that's right, no turbo,and that's why I considered to have a turbo built in.i shouldn't have used the word rebuild,sorry.
I have not much experience with electronics though, so before I consider it I just wanted to check whether it is actually possible to do this.You see 68 hp isn't that much for a break when you live in the mountains...
The price he asks is 6500$.Any ideas maybe?
