rebuilding turbo??

[gen1gsx]

sorry if it's already been discussed, but i was wondering how hard it is to rebuild a TD05H turbo? would it be cheaper to get a new one or rebuild it? and where would i get a rebuild kit?
thanks

There are kits out there, but I know you have to have it spin-balanced when you are finished and finding a place that does that may end up costing you mare than it's worth. Rebuilding the guts of your turbo isn't that hard if you pay attention and think logically about it.

To tell you my opinions, I think its better if you were to just buy a new turbo. From my experience..rebuilt turbos just don't perform the way they did.
