I have more confidence in the rebuilds we get than the brand new ones. Having said that, there's only 1 place I trust and on top of that only 1 guy there I trust.
15 years, never had a problem with a turbo rebuilt by Glenn @ Western Turbo in Winnipeg.

Its like rebuilding an engine. Do a good job, and it'll be as good or better than new. As with engines, some turbos are rebuilt very poorly and some are pristine.

Turbosunleashed would have a good deal on them, and their warranties are typically very good.

I agree. If you are buying rebuilt or even new, make sure you can trust the shop. Otherwise, http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1097918
