They posted in dsmtuners about how their cost went up to 1450 for them now. I personally think all of FP's turbos are overpriced, plenty other turbos that will produce the same results for a lot less. But supposedly all the venders will be having a price increase due to the Japan crisis.

That's wicked. They went up faster than gold. I hope my $499 one lasts forever.

Any turbo can be serviced and rebuilt unless damage is sustained such that would ruin the compressor wheel or turbine wheel and shaft.
