Default Rebuild Greddy 19T turbo??

Long storry short, my turbo is leeking oil because the turbo got too much oil pressure.

I have'nt opened the turbo yet, but there must be at gasket that is blown, because all the oil is going into the intercooler and into the engine .

I'm been looking on ebay for repair kit an wonder if this is any good:

Is it hard to rebuild the turbo? I do not think i have to balance the turbo since it spool at 2700-3000rpm as it did before the gasket went ...


Thank for any reply

The balancing of a turbo is more critical then you think. The turbo itself spins MUCH faster then your engine. I've been told upwards of 100,000rpms. Its very very critical that everything is correctly balanced. To do the job the right way, one needs expensive equipment. My best advice for you is to employ the services of a qualified shop to rebuild the turbo for you. The money you might save by rebuilding it yourself isn't going to be anything saved if it blows up and takes your engine with it..
