88 TII Turbo rebuild kit?

Hey everyone. I have a 1988 tenth anniversary. I am in the middle of trying to get it back looking the way it should. It has been abused. I am keeping everything STOCK on this car. My problem is, on the exhaust side of my turbo, it looks like the turbine wheel is like ate away a little bit. Do they make a turbo rebuild kit for my factory turbo? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Throw away that turbine (wheel).
It's no good.

There are lots of used turbos out there.
Any of the stock FC turbos will do, since the internals are all the same.
Hell, just chuck your turbo and get a good, used one.
A Zenki FC turbo turbo goes for about $100 or less.
Shipping is expensive due to the weight.

Ate away a little bit... looks like someone ran pebbles through the engine for a few months
