I dont trust that crap on eBay and I know that there are a few of you that work at some shops that can probably get a hell of a deal on something like this. Is there anyone out there that can help me out?

Also, I am looking for the turbo compressor flange for the turbo as well. If anyone has a spare one could you please leave a message?

Thanks

PS. Incase im confusing anyone, this is a pic of what my turbo looks like and what I am missing:

You are looking for a rebuild kit for that EXACT turbo? I don't know about that one, but the Garrett Ball-bearings cannot be rebuilt. The entire CHRA has to be replaced.

Oh ok, in that case any T25/28 kit should be sufficient. Just make sure whoever puts it back together puts it on a VSR balancer. Otherwise it will just grenade itself.

Do you think a turbo shop would let me do the rebuild but I get them just to balance it? I know a rebuild by a turbo company would cost a few hundred when all I would really need it just the turbine balanced

I would just rebuild it and have the CHRA taken to a shop to balance. Try any diesel shop once it's rebuilt.

That's an ebay GT28RS turbo (really a gt28r, not rs..).

APT turbo sells the flange, it's 40 bux.

What's wrong with the turbo?

the turbo I picked up was a pulsar gti-r turbo after I did some research. That pic I just stole from eBay to clarify the flange I needed. As for the turbo itself, the turbine housing has a few cracks in and around the wastegate so I need to pull it off to get it welded. Then it'll need a rebuild of course. That's the situation im in
