I need a new center section. Does anyone know of a Canadian supplier for these turbos? I tried to call TSS with no luck.

I talked to Dave at TSS and he said it was normal to see some oil in the exhaust side? Whatever... I'll run it and see. I had the compressor and exhaust housings off to do some clean up and repair and it was pooled up pretty good? Ultimately, TSS has parts for me. $650 for the center section.

Not only would i not support TSS in any way shape or form. i would verify that information elsewhere. My garret doesnt leak no oil? however if i roll it over or wheelie over on myself it does burn some oil from the tank. It seems weird you would have lots there because it gets pretty hot in there. do you loose lots from the reservoir?

I could careless about TSS. They've done nothing to me. I just wanted the part... and quick. I don't know of anyone who can supply it quicker. I had a chubb when I saw snow flakes and started going through my sled. Preseason maintenance. I'm not in any hurry anyways. There's no snow. I never did get a response right from KPA. Maybe I'll buy from Justin at Silber.

Sometimes the cheaper option is not the least expensive one. You have to remember a KPA is a Chinese built piece, with different standards.
Be prepared for a nice big invoice from the Canadian government for duties that you won’t expect.

Thanks Neil. I realize there would be tax and duties out of the States. I would love to just buy new, buy the best and have someone else do the work. Its just that my priorities are in a different place these days.
