Well been having some problems with my turbo so I pulled it and found it needs a new turbine and heat shield. Problems is I couldn't find any part for my GT17, so I emailed garret and comes to find out they don't sell any parts for it
model: GT17
P/N: 778445-5002S
Here is the response I got from them.
"I received your inquiry and I am able to help with your issue below. I’ll have to confirm with Garrett if they sell individual components for your turbo, however I can sell you brand new turbo P/N 778445-5002S"
Next email
"Unfortunately Garrett confirmed individual components are not available for this turbocharger.
As stated, I am able to sell you a complete turbocharger if needed. We have them in stock.
Thank you,
Jason"
Well I never figured garrett won't sell parts for a turbo they sold. So I guess my question is what do you guys think would be a better replacement for me since this one can't be rebuilt. Car is a 02 Bora, Straight pipe exhaust, PP764, injectors, tune. Thanks Dan
