hi guys,well yesterday i was just driving normally, and i hit boost at like 10lb then heard somthing that sounded like a coupler coming off ( if anyone knows what im talking about) then after that i coudnt get into boost and heard a jiggling and dinging noise. so i took off the turbo last night and felt the shaft play and wow i had way to much. my question is can i rebuild this turbo? here are some pics. also is this a s15 t28?

PICS

any help will be appriciated, thanks guys

That is an S15 turbo. Its ball bearing which generally means it cannot be rebuilt. The argument goes both ways. But I am pretty sure that rebuilders just replace the entire center section. Which is quite expensive.
