FS, SWPA/Pgh area - JmP Custom billet VF40

[BoozeRS05]

I’m currently running a XSBoost Turbochargers billet vf40. It was brand new when installed like 5k miles ago and seemed to be a very high quality turbo. Very similar to, but idk whether as good as a JmP custom. I’d buy one again.

 

Unfortunately my motor leaks enough oil that the more boost I’m into the more oil it pushes out. I’m using a Cobb ots stg2 tune also, but I keep out of WOT. I’m hoping to Sunday drive it to and from the meet, eventually cross 200k miles, and then tear it all apart and start over.

Or...Bring all of your parts and we will quickly upgrade your car with the parts you bring with you.

Already planning to bring everything needed to assemble my longblock, got it all neatly piled up in my garage waiting. Whether we should install the motor there is debatable.

Subaru Roadkill episode needs to be at least time lapse video captured!

Does anyone know if XS rebuilds with IHI or Melett parts? Someone else? I see they use UK made parts

While both Melett and IHI have US based operations they are not US companies.  IHI Corp is located in Japan.  Melett limited in UK based. 

So, while I can not say who XS uses for certain, it is most likely not IHI. 

I see that Pure Turbos has both VF40s and VF46s in stock.  $500 to rebuild yours (complete rebuild including disassemble, cleaning, checking all tolerances and dimensions, polishing turbine shaft, media blasting, honing, new bearings, new seals, new thrust components, dynamic balancing, reassemble, VSR cartridge balancing.)  They are the only US based shop that can properly rebuild and VSR cartridge balance ball bearing turbos.
