What all is done during a turbo rebuild?
Hey guys I just pulled my turbo off. My plan was to get new seals, because my car smokes at idle, and it's definitely the turbo seals. I noticed significant shaft play in the turbo. It wasn't like this last month, but now it is. Must've been that compressor surge I was getting 
I was thinking about sending it to Majestic Turbo or Cheapturbo to get rebuild. What all is included? A local place just quoted me $900 to rebuild it. That's rediculous. The turbo is cheaper new!
I just don't want to send it out and get shafted with a huge build like this. I know they charge around $250-300. Anyone know what's included in this rebuild?
This is the turbo I have, for the record: http://store.yahoo.com/cheapturbo/garrettt28.html
