Phoenix turbo rebuilds them. I think they charge $299.

Or you could do it yourself. It's not really that hard.

Kits on eGay are like what? $90?

Yeah, but just make sure you get the kit with the correct compressor seal. There are a few different kinds of compressor seals and the eBay auctions usually don't specify which seal comes in the kit.

I got my rebuild kit from www.turbocity.com. They have rebuild kits for just about every turbo out there.

I think I paid like $105 shipped for mine. But turbo city was really helpful and answered all of my emails right away so I was willing to pay a few extra bucks for the service.

just because the turbo gets new seals and barings, dosent mean its good again, places that rebuild turbos, balence the turbines and shaft so the barings dont get warn down automaticly, because of the different ware patterns... just like putiing brand new barings on a crank that got a spun rod, its pointless because your just gona end up eather rebuilding it again, or blowing the ****** up because its so bad, like shafts to the walls and ----. just get it rebuilt right, if u want to do it yourself, get more info on doing it, do to like a deisel shop and they can balence the turbine wheels and shaft for likr 50-100 bucks, and they can get the correct rebuild kit for the turbo by the # on the turbo so u will be set, and trust me, turbos rebuild kits from a deisel shop like northland deisel up here are hella cheap like 40-75 bucks...
