Yes check out the freelancer on turbo rebuilds there are a few out there, the seal looks bad, im rebuilding my evo 16 doesn't seem that bad there found me a nice kit.

You need a new turbine and a full rebuild. If the rest of the turbo is in nice shape and worth rebuilding, you'll have a practically-new 14B when it's all said and done....otherwise you may want to spend the money on another turbo if there are any large cracks in the turbine housing or other reasons it's not worth repairing.

These are the only cracks in the turbine housing.

Yea I picked the turbo up for 50.00 hoping that all it needed was a rebuild and balance. Looks like itll be getting a new turbine wheel and shaft.

So you're $50 into it- another $80 for a turbine and $55 for a rebuild kit then $45-$65 depending who does the balance work.

All depends whether you feel like dumping $250 into a 14B or not.

You may want to look at a 16g for the price of a rebuilt 14b after you really look at it.

Where can you get a turbine? I dont think I would spend no more then 250 on this 14b.
