pretty much the price of the standard rebuild because of the cost of spin balancing…

is that the same golden eagle adapter kit you would use for LSvtec?

It seems like it would have to pass through the filter to get to the outside of that donut

well you have to take it apart to see…if there are blue heat marks on the shaft it was a low oil if it was just blowing smoke could be the seals from too much oil pressure

no blue marks, the bearings went bad, and blew the seals, there was slight shaft play when i bought it, it came with some sord of restrictor when i got the turbo im gonna have to look,

yea i used the ls-vtec adapter, i geuss im gonna get a turbo timer and use only oem oil filters from here on out!!  
(there is like 20k on my turbo of abuse, sorda i was only at 10 lbs)

i have never had a problem w/ anything i got from turbonetics. nothing but pain free operation.

as far as rebuildiong goes… i’d just send it out and let someone do it. because if they fuck up the balancing and the wheel scrapes a housing, then they are paying to fix it, which chances are the turbo would b f’d and they are buying a new one…
