Default good place to have turbos rebuilt?

im going to win this auction on ebay, im willin to spend up to 1300 for these bad boys, they can support up to 700hp on my Z, but the seals are toasted, where is a good place to get em rebuilt? should i buy the kit and try to do it myself or does it need to be professionally done? or should i buy the seals n crap, take it apart, and then send it to a rebuilder? im tryin to price things out here to see how much it will cost me in the end. thanks guys

might check out www.turbocity.com

they do rebuilds, and also they sell rebuilt kits with all the bearings and seals n junk, you could do that and then just have the shaft microbalanced and do it yourself.
