Yeah, Lee Wilson knows his schit. He'll take the turbo off and send it away for a rebuild. I had my T3 high flow overhauled & balanced with a good second hand exhaust wheel & centre bearing housing just under $1,000. Trust me Lee will look after you.

Jeeebus a $1000 bucks... 6boost was doing brand new GT28r for $1250 plus post.

Yeah I know expansive, but they placed a lager wheel on with a larger compressor housing as well. It was more like $800+. It included removal, installation and bench test.

Unless you where looking for more than 450hp size compressor wheel you would be mad not to just get a new Garrett. I also think billet turbo do hi-flo work to RB25 ceramic stuff.

I sent mine to Hyper gear. $800, for highflow, seems to be working a treat Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
