Default Value of t3/t4 that needs a new turbine wheel?

Just as the post says I have a t3/t4 57trim .63 a/r that has been sitting for a couple years. I pulled the turbo to replace it with a smaller turbo for better spool. I should mention that I was only running 8psi at the time and the turbo was boosting well.

value is zero .. you cannot just change the turbine wheel. its connected to the shaft. once you go through the motions of rebuilding it. its cheaper or not too far off from just purchasing a new turbo.

No, he's just saying its maybe worth 50 to 100 dollars without repair. Turbine wheel/shafts are over 200 dollars for the part and easily another 300 in repairs.
