18g rebuild?

[jroddsm]

Does anyone know if a 16g rebuild kit will work on my Greddy 18g turbo???

It will as far as I know if it's a Greddy T517Z or T518Z Turbo.

It just says TDO5-18G and has a long serial number... :-/

18g turbos are a rare beast...i had one and ditched it because it needed a rebuild and i couldnt find quality parts anywhere...even my local rebuild shop said it was rare... I say ditch it.

As far as I know as long as it's a TD05 it will work.

Here are a couple examples I found that I'm not endorsing, but they are examples that should work.

It can have Greddy printed on the turbo as many times as it can fit, and despite a price tag three times heavier than your average Mitsubishi turbo, it's still a Mitsubishi turbo.

Any TD05H/TD06 kit will work.

Thanks for the input. Guess I'll take it apart and see...
