Ron's Turbo Service (Any dealings???)

This fella off of Ebay. Has 1800 transactions and 100% feedback. Anyway my 2000 F350 Crew Cab 4x4 is having issues. Need a new Turbo. Don't know why they stuck those gutless pieces of junk on these trucks. Anyway, the compressor surge is getting pretty bad and the wastegate stuck the other day and sounded like a grenade went off underneath it. I found this turbo and called him on it. Seems to know his stuff and was super generous with info and answering questions.

This is something of what I am looking at and the money is super as well as the warranty for a reman. My truck has a TS 6 pos chip, Banks 4" stainless, Air Raid Intake. What could I expect from this performance wise or buy a new one?

Honestly, that looks like a van turbo. Not a "super high performance" turbo.

I would give bean at beans diesel a call, I understand he is going to have a new option out for the superduty's.

Also, check the turbonetics out, they are nice as well.

I bought my turbo rebuild kit from ron's, he is a great guy with lots of informative help, I ordered my kit and had it the very next day, thats from clear across the country, I had a few questions for him and he always answered the phone and had time to help out, I would recomend him. I bought the rebuild kit wich consists of bearings and seals, and a banks impeller, delivered for 200.00 dollars, I was very happy with his service.
