I recently Homemade turboed my MINIME and last night I blew the seals out of my turbo becuase it is leaking like crazy everywhere... it is also smoking up a storm too. I noticed the oil coming out of the wastegate so its definately gone. Recently I picked up another T25 from the junkyard but it has alot of shaft play.... My question is can I take both of these turbos apart and make one good working turbo? If so what all would I need to do to do this?
Thanks!

You can't really make 2 junk turbos into 1 good, more than likely they are ineed of the same parts...send one or both to Blaast for a rebuild, I hear they do good work are affordable and you will have a warrenty

BLAAST

i will waranty a t25 only if i deem your use of it appropriate!
They're small. it's easy to max them out.

If i do a rebuild on my T25 can u still balance it after?
and how mutch?

BLAAST

yes of course the turbo is balanced. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a rebuild.

I think you miss read

Will you balance us DIY rebuilders turbos, of course I'd assume no warrenty but how much for just that service

BLAAST

yes sure if you send just the rotating assembly, i can balance it for 50$ no warranty. That's a very bad idea though....balancing is just 10% of a proper and successful rebuild.

sounds like a waste of money for such a small-*** turbo to me. the amount of money to service it can get you another junkyard turbo.
it whould be a good start, but after awhile you gonna want to upgrade to a bigger turbo.
