In December I replaced my Turbo on my 945SE and I ordered a rebuilt by Eriksson at FCP Groton and I think it cost me about $500. My turbo was just smoking a little, so it was not completely shot and it was easily rebuildable.
I only later discovered a turbo shop here in Miami that would have rebuild my turbo for a little over $200, should I go back I would have saved by having it rebuilt locally.
The installation is very easy, give yourself a favor and unbolt the catalythic converter from the rest of the exhaust, otherwise you will have to bend and force the exhaust considerably to refit the turbo, as I did, and I now ended with a crack in the exhaust tube because of that bending and pulling...
