You cannot rebuild these things you need a new center section.

can i use a non ball bearing center section off a t25? it wont be ball bearing anymore but i dont mind, doing this means it has to be rebalanced? or jus put together.?

Re: rebuilding Gt series turbo's?
 

you can send them to Garrett and they can rebuilt them. Or you can buy a new center section.

As long as for the non ballbearing center section, you can use it, if the wheels are the same size.

what if i use the wheels n everything off the gt28, exhaust wheel, compressor wheel, exhaust housing, compressor housing. jus the new center section

I wanna here the story behind this though >:D

Re: rebuilding Gt series turbo's?
 

if u wanna kno. my retarded self asked around about running a bov or not with a bb turbo. i get information about not needing one. so i take it out. bam i blow the turbo within a few months. done deal. wobble wobble in and out, up n down. blown. scraping compressor housing in boost. like a screaming lil ----- while being raped.

GT series does not mean baller bearing. The majority of Garrett GTxx turbos are regular journal bearing units, I highly doubt baller bearing accounts for 1% of total GT-series sales.

Ball bearing CHRAs can not be rebuilt. You have to order another CHRA.

ok... thanks for the info. mine was ball bearing. how do i know this? spin it. not journal bearing sound or spin. how else? turn my car off, turbo keeps spinning for almost a whole minute maybe longer. how else? it was on the reciept.

I wasn't questioning whether or not you had baller bearing. I was supplying information to counterbalance the erroneous title and content of this thread.
