Good luck in your search. If you have no luck, I will give my mate a call with an Evo 6, he may know of some places.

Hi, does he have any symptoms that the bearings have gone, blue smoke on off boost (lift off) if there was a problem with blades, i.e. damaged he could be in trouble with his engine, so has he had it inspected for damaged blades? The big problem with turbo issues is that you don't necessarily know until it's too late :/ Also if he is replacing it with a stock turbo why not just give it to a reliable garage, it's not a hard job.

turbo off and taken to reputable garage who on inspecting it said the blades are all ok but the spindle or shaft is loose they are to either rebuild or find a substitute so hopefully he will be back on the road soon . many thanks for all replies
