New turbos cost an absolute fortune. Reconditioned units can be picked up more cheaply, but they are still pretty expensive and most of the time you will have to pay a surcharge unless you send them your old turbocharger as an exchange.
Guess why?... These companies just clean everything up, stick a new CHRA in, and then sell the unit on to someone else. Once you see how easy it is to replace the core yourself - and when you see how cheap they are [mine cost 59 USD] - you might never buy a new or reconditioned turbo ever again!

Thes units are balanced, so you don't need to worry about balancing your turbo after you have repaired it, which is a problem you would have if you go down the other route of replacing individual seals & components inside the core.
