Turbo rebuild question

[kt239]

I have a 95 TSi and was wondering what t25 kit I should get to rebuild the turbo. By that I mean id it a td04 or td05 ect? Better yet is there a way to tell?

Easy you have neither tdo4 and tdo5 refer to mitsu turbos. You have a garret t25

You buy a parts kit for a T25. Pretty plain and simple.

You'll need the kit for a Mitsu T25- it's different than Nissan T25's. Buy your parts on eBay and you're pretty much guaranteed to get garbage that doesn't fit.

TD04, TD05 refers to stock 1g MHI turbo chargers. The T25 is a Garret T04e, and they generally can't be rebuilt. It's better at this point to upgrade.

Wrong. A Garrett T25 is a Garrett T25.

and they generally can't be rebuilt.

Says who? As long as the wheels aren't damaged there's no reason it can't be serviced.

Where is a reputable source to get a rebuild kit? I see all kinds of listings on eBay but they all clearly state modifications will need to be made. And as much as an upgrade is desirable my funds currently do not permit so a rebuild is my option. I just need to have this last a few more months until I'm ready to purchase a bigger turbo (fp red is looking like a winner) but until then I like my oil kept in the motor . So as my search has led me to eBay and discussions about rebuilding a turbo I'm asking for a hand in finding a decent no modification needed rebuild kit for a Mitsubishi T25.

Better go with someone like G-Pop Shop. You may pay a little more, but you're guaranteed to get the correct parts which will fit without modification.

I see you're fairly local- I stock parts kits for T25's at all times if you'd like to bypass the shipping and such.
