there is a lot more to it than just replacing seals. If you knew alot about turbochargers you would know there is no seal to replace. The bearings have gotten warn and is causing the piston rings to leak. I would send your turbo to Tim's Turbo over on the east coast. He is a good rebuilder and is as honest as you can get.

Is this just symantics then? What do you call the piston-ring (dynamic) and carbon 'seals' you find on the turbine and compressor end of Garrett turbos, if not "seals"?

mine is a ball bearing if that matters, per turbonetics i did not use a restrictor, but i decided to say eff them and use a restrictor, it made no difference

Not to thread jack, but my greddy 18g just blew recently. It still boosts and feels powerful, but it leaks oil like crazy and smokes prefusely. Any direction towards who can rebuild it?
