If you can get it fixed for $38 then get it fixed.

 

I can have the fins fixed and shaft balance for $38, then I'll also need a seal kit. I think I will fix it, get some experience rebuilding turbos while I am at it.

 

It looks just like a turbo that I pulled off a Volvo recently.

It was mounted the same way to the exhaust manifold, there were bolts through the back of the manifold that threaded into the turbo (made it a pain to remove it at the junkyard ).

But yeah, the one I pulled off was a .42 on the compressor side and a .63 on the hot side. I sent mine into Blaast for a rebuild and he swapped the .63 out for a .48.

Once you get it off the manifold you will notice that it has a funky circular turbine inlet flange.

 

ya blaast is a good man he fully rebuilt my turbo and did some custom stuff to help meet what i want...

 

How much did it cost?

 

depends on the turbo, but if you look at his website, i believe they are 200 or under


worth it if its a turbo you want to keep

 

$129 for a rebuild
