Default Turbo reconditioning

How much will it cost to have a small vf 22/23 rebuilt/reconditioned etc?
Or is it cheaper just to buy a bigger one
It would be a real shame if it's cheaper

I have read that VF22s have very fragile blades, if its a tired turbo, might be best to change it rather than service it?

ok thanks mate
the only reason im thinking about keeping it is because it's a hybrid and comes on boost very early yet still produces 340hp top end!

I would like to know a rough cost to refiurb it before I buy a new one!
