Most communities have a turbo or diesel shop that can rebuild turbos. The cost is usually reasonable and you are dealing with someone local that will support you.

You might try rebuilding your own and then having it balanced locally? That's what I was leaning towards doing with mine. Then I found a used one with no shaft play for less than it would have cost for the kit and balancing.

Here's a website that sells our kit
