integra gsr turbo questions
i am planning to rebuild my engine this winter and i am wanting to slowly get a budget turbo setup together i bought a garrett t-25 and a set of evo injectors and rail of a guy i know i gave 50 for the turbo and 100 for the injectors and rail the turbo has a pretty good amount of shaft play and i was wondering if i would need to take it somewhere to get rebuilt or could i do it on my own? also would it be worth rebuilding?

the only parts i see missing from this kit is both intake and exhaust wheels and the turbo shaft....
$47 + $4.80 for shipping seems pretty reasonable to me IMO.

i dont really know how to explain how much but you can move it to where theres a gap between the wheel and housing and its really tight on the other side but it is not enough for them to come in conact with each other if that makes since?

well im not for sure, but it sounds like its not completley shot. i hate to say it, but i think the only way you'll find out is to put it on and see what it does. that way you can check it while the car is idling and see if there are any leaks from the seals or see if the compressor wheel is hitting the housing. dont put on the the intake pipe, that way if it breaks, it wont shoot pieces of metal into your engine. if the wheel is hitting the housing you should be able to hear it. so listen for any strange sounds.
that is what i would do. good luck!

would a t25 off a dsm be too small for my b18c1? i have heard some people say it would be good and others say it wont flow well enough in the higher rpms but they come stock on 2.0 engines? and also will those injectors be okay for my setup?

once oil pressure is applied to the turbo the clearence will be reduced. cap the oil drain with your finger. fill the oil feed hole with oil. put another finger over the oil feed hole and press to make pressure. you should see most of the clearence go away. all journal bearing turbos have play. as long as there is no wheel contact to the housing or major front to back play you should be good.
