Default damn, turbo is blown

So i put my turbo on today... and what da ya know... purple smoke coming out from the exhaust. Not just a little bit, but lots of it.

Anyone know how I can fix the seals inside? Is it easy? Also where can I buy the kit to fix it. Boost feels GREAT but it smokes wayyyyy tooo much.

Damn that really sucks on the blown turbo. You can call Turbo City in Anaheim, CA I'm sure they will have a rebuild kit for you.

turbonetics makes a reuild kit for $90

not hard to do, i would just buy the kit and bring it to your local truck shop and get them to rebuild it. save you lots of $$
