Unhappy A6 2.7T Turbo replacement

I need a recommendation on a independent shop to replace the turbos on my A6 2.7t. I am in the Farmington area.

At 130k mi should I replace the turbos or sell the car for parts? (all of which are good)

The cost to replace the turbos is going to be prohibitively expensive (~$5K). It might be wiser to to part out the car and invest in something new. At the same time, if it worth it to you to hold on to the car investing that much into it is not as big a deal.

Sorry I can't recommend a shop, not familiar with your area. Just DIY it.

Not sure about your area, but if you're paying that much for new turbo's, you're getting taken to the cleaners. EC Werks has stock KO3's for $1,645 / pair, and you can upgrade for a few hundred more. It will NOT require 3 grand plus in labor.
