Re: Rebuilding turbo

yeah because with alot of shaft play chances are the shaft is worn like hell along with the bearings. I have rebuilt a turbo twice for my friend before but told him it would not last long. Do to shaft worn a little so you still had very little play and also i could not balance like a turbo shop. Over all the turbo lasted him about 2 months before it was gone again. I told him the money he spent on the kits he could of found a nice used turbo somewhere lol
