Default Greddy pos toy TD04 turbo finally bit the dust... What to do with it?

can it be rebuilt for a decent price? or should i throw it in a lake and pretend i never saw it's tiny ***.

My car is my daily driver and the turbo is already blowing smoke at idle and i can feel the boost starting to come on slower and with less force than it was just 2 days ago. I imagine it has only a very minute amount of life left Also is it safe to drive around with a turbo with blown oil seals? Will any harm be done aside from oil usage?

So yeah; someone wanna spot me a new turbo/mani/dp or a cheapass header so i can run na until i get a new hairdryer?

Anyway. Just hit up your local junkyard for a decent turbo and make yourself an adapter plate for your current manifold. Why bother changing everything?

because this greddy log manifold is a piece and a t3 wouldnt even fit with an adapter plate unless it was angled.... and its restrictive as hell.
I wouldnt mind a braced and reworked SSAutocrap manifold and 2nd hand t3/t04 for now then a new i/c and piping when i can sell this kit.

I've got a buddy with an LSVTEC turbo making over 400 to the wheels with a "shitty braced SSautochrome" manifold, so you can put it in your ignorant *** .
