We’re doing the same thing in the opposite order.
I hope this one doesn’t become a major headache.
Good luck with that one.

Yea, thats def a huge mileage difference from the first 2 turbos. I'd investigate further through the steps to see if there's something missed. I haven't read any horror stories on the GA place (at least on this forum) that I can recall, which is why I used them for the replacement on my cm2350.

As for the Chicago-area place, I used them for just an actuator on my X15 since Cummins wanted twice as much. Figured it was worth the gamble since I do my own work. 480k ish on the Cummins actuator vs roughly 30k on theirs gives you an idea of how that worked out.

Keep us updated... def like to know whats going on there.
