i put oil in the feed line and blocked off the drain to see if it leaked at all
would one of the ebay t25 rebuild kits solve my problem the metal insert right below the exhaust wheel is slightly hitting the wheel maybe because of the old oil on it and on the compressor side oil ran down the outlet would i need to replace the turbine seals, the rubber ring on the seal plate or rubber ring on the compressor housing? dose it matter what rebuild kit i buy for a t25

 

those rebuild kits arent that bad. but then again youre gonna shell out $80 when you could get another turbo for just a bit more. plus youre gonna need to get it rebalanced.

 

ive been looking for a few weeks but i find nothing much i found a holset hx35 for 21.50 on ebay but i dont think a d16 would like it much

 

Why rebuild a t25? It would be a waste of money. After runing the turo for a few month you'll realize how stupidly small it is!

Save you money, get a decent t3.

Also if your not going to ****** the Holset, link me to it!

 

the holset sold at the buy it now price of 125. ive been looking forever for a decent t3 but havent found one at a price that suits me well.i have the oil lines for this t25 already thats why i was going to rebuild it but you would know better than me to know why not rebuild it
