Yeah spoke with James this morning and no surprise neither aftermarket turbo company will deal with him. The new turbos from BMW have fixed the actuator rod to the wastegate so there should be less problems.

I have also done a ton of research and I just don;t think the aftermarket turbos being rebuilt on existing bad turbos are the way to go. It seems that there are people having problems with those too. Since this is my daily I just don't want to spend more money on labor should a part go bad. So I am going with OEM. Hey with software flash and some more upgrades this car will be more than fast enough for me.
