I had my turbo rebuilt/upgraded (46 trim) at performance techniques, www.turbocharged.com
It has been 1.5 years since I had it done and no problems here.

i had mine done by turbonetics - it cost $450 + shipping both ways. I like it... If i were to do it all again i would just ship it to ATS and get their "CT-27" job done on it for $850 - but that all depends on how much power you want. It is all about goals. When i did mine, i knew then that it was just a stepping stone until i got a bigger turbo...

i think ats 27 is the same as the upgrade ct26 because if you look at the mods. and take that out it equals to there upgraded ver. of it

I also had turbonetics do mine. They upgraded it as much as they could, i believe it is a 57 trim. I dont exactly remember because a shop i went to sent it, not me. It works great and makes solid boost without spiking or loosing boost at higher rpms. I run it at about 20psi with a shitty $10 boost controller and it holds strong at 20psi all the way to redline.

I also had my CT26 done at Turbonetics. If i were to do it again, I would get the ex. housing modified by ATS Racing.
Good advice goldfish!
Mine was $450 + shippingshoteh":qpwwe9r6 said:how much did it cost you and how long did it take?
I must have been lucky, because I had no problems with PT or their work.illGT4":qpwwe9r6 said:At the same time I would stay away from Majestic and PT.
There have been plenty of turbo problems with Maj. and PT is questionable at best.

my pt turbo upgrade works awesome. took a long time, but there are NO problems with it. btw, their alltrac.net price is now 475 plus shipping.
Toysport does the upgrades, i believe.
ATS seems to be the best now.

thanks for all the info. one more thing whats the hp you got and when does it spool up?? thanks guys
It's a nice upgrade, but still only a CT26. So don't expect it to blow your doors off! lol..
and I just noticed you have a st165. Another option for you would be to get a 46 trim (t04e wheel) and put on an exhaust housing from a Supra CT26. That is a combination that is highly recommended.
46 trim compressor wheel
MKIII Supra CT26 exhaust housing

320hp.. .do you mean at the enigne or to the wheels?
Anyhow.. if you want a good cost effiient upgraded to the CT26, get the 46 trim and the Supra CT26 ex. housing. Pretty much the best you can get for your 165.
