(VPS 090630-0, 06/30/2009), Outbound message X-Antivirus-Status: Clean Any one know of a good company to have a turbo rebuilt. I have a friend with a turbo he's trying to get rebuilt. He bought an $80 rebuild kit, and as soon as he started the engine it started leaking oil past the seal. I told him I thought it needed a carbon seal, but I've never rebuilt one, and don't know too much about them. Any one rebuilt one with success? It's a T3. I think the stock rotary turbos are T3's, correct me if I'm wrong. I know a few people have gone through some stock turbos on the list. John Slade for one. Thanks so much. David Moyer
