it is possible to rebuild turbos. there are companies that do just that, but from researching for my own vehicle it turns out its cheaper to buy a new one(even if its oem or slightly larger) than to pay to get the existing one rebuilt. ---

i wanted to get mine rebuilt to k04 specs, but judging by the amount of time it will cost a person or a company to rebuild mine, including shipping costs and shipping delays and installation it’s cheaper to buy two new k04’s for me and to just get those in with some fresh lines. make sure its completely toast, because if it just has a bad blade or something, it can be fixed cheaper than a new one. find out for sure before buying a whole new one. if yours is completely bad, you can prolly sell it for parts and at least get _some_ cash for it. ---

Just check on a Subaru forum for an OEM turbo. These guys are swapping their stockers out all of the time, so I don’t think it’ll be any problem finding one, and this way you’ll save money, won’t have to worry about re-mapping your ECU, getting larger injectors, etc. etc… Unless you want to spend all of that money. ---

Already has an upgraded turbo. Dom, I was just thinking… call FP and see if they will take yours as a core or if they will rebuild it. It is an OEM turbo of some sort right? ---

Also call Blouch Turbo. They have a website as well. They rebuild/upgrade turbos, especially for the STI/EVO crowd. ---

You may be better off buying a new one. Look around on nasioc for another direct bolt on turbo that is similar in size to yours [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/need-some-help/251881.md?page=2)
