Here is the progression of my TII Adventure. Turbo looked decent, no excessive play, put being **** retentive I decided to rebuild it. Caleed Turbo City, rebuild kit was 110 + 17 shipping for UPS blue label. Unit arrived in 2 days as promised!



Here is the assembled "cartridge", as removed from the manifold

yup looks like the guts of a turbo!

This pic shows the compressor wheel removed from the turbine shaft. To remove hold the nut on the turbine end with a 12mm 12pt socket and loosen the compressor nut with a 10 \mm open end wrench. A "dead-blow" hammer is used to tap the shaft free. DO NOT DROP THE SHAFT OR COMPRESSOR WHEEL:YOU WILL BEND A BLADE!!!

This is a shot of the seal plate and thrust bearing assembly

The Compressor wheel after bead blast cleaning. Bead Blasting was accomplished with #80 glass bead @ 40 PSIG

More Progress will be posted tomorrow after I remover the snap rings

definitly going to let someone else do it for me... knowing me i'll drop the thing...



how much does a basic rebuild with new seals and balacing run aproximately?

Cool, nice to see the guts of a turbo i have never seen them before.

300-450 for a cartridge
