theres this buddy of mine who has a STOCK ct26 turbo with only 40k miles on it cuz it came of a J-spec used motor that he is selling...what is a good price for it?? also i herd something about UPGRADING it to a 60 trim....by boring it out or compressing at a turbo charger shop.....has any one done this??? and how much??.....is 40 dollars good for that stock turbo and then another 200 to upgrade???? and also how much HP gains will this give me/?
cost to upgrade turbo...

sure $40 is a steal for a stock turbo that has no shaft play or oil on the exhuast side. a good upgrade will cost about $450

Yes-sirree. Either PM me or talk with Jtamulis on the boards here, as he is one of my main distributors of MDC products.
MDC does good work. i was going to go thru them but i got a better turbo instead of sticking with the CT
A normal CT-26 rebuild is $375 retail (I do them for $350), An upgraded CT-26
is about another $200 more. But Jon and I only do .57 trim because they last
the longest, and make the best reliable power.

If you want the best bang for your buck, then the 57 trim. It will last a long time, and if pushed hard enough and tuned - you'll hit the mid 400's with it.

Sir, You've got to realize this is a direct bolt on to your manifold.
Also, it IS and WILL be brand new. Jon(MDC's) work is Top-notch.
If you want to pursue something bigger that will bolt on, you are going to be looking at a lot more than $500-600 (depending on a core charge).
GOOD Brand New Turbo's are not cheap. PERIOD.
57 trim should be more than enough. As John said, if pushed hard youll be in the mid-400's.
Thats fast.
And its reliable and cheap. What more could ya want for the money?
