Try the vendors on this site. I'm sure they can help you with whatever you need done. Give them a call....

what kind of car

i highly doubt the work needed will be worth the price of the car. valves and turbo seal is no laughing, or cheap, matter.

Well the fix to the turbo seal problem is get a new turbo. What kid of car?

well the car is worth 14k and I can get it for under 9k so id be willing to spend a few hundred bucks, the valves jus need to be adjusted and the turbo seals only get messed up when the car sits for over 2 weeks

adjusting valves can cost a lot more than you think. if its on an inline 4 it shouldnt be to bad. but if your looking at a subie, its gona cost you a lot.

You should be looking at $800 for engine work at least id say. no offense but if a valve needs an adjustment its probably cause something serious unadjusted it. sounds like a money pit to me
