HM ball bearing install
 

Was wondering if any of u guys had ever attempted to make your non ball bearing turbo into a ball bearing turbo. I'm considering doing it on my T25 but i need to do some research first. I'm unsure if i would have to find some sort of ceramic ball bearing or if the standard stainless would work with the heat ok without expanding too much and seizing up. Any suggestions feel free to say something.

Don't let me discourage you, but aren't you worried about ------- it up and having it sieze on you while you're on the interstate or something?

I don't think any ball bearing turbo on the market uses anything other than ceramic. would ball bearings even fit in the space?

well whatever happens, do a How-To if you end up doing it... Oh yea, also put up a video or a "end-result" or "final thought" summary of what happens... Dont know maybe you'll find a gold mine but then again it might be pyrite.

Ive been doing some research and i think its possible and im gonna attempt it so if it works i'll do a write up

Dude, if that works for you and you get it to run say 500 miles without any problems, I'll sticky that writeup for a week or so. Good luck.
