Turbo City in the USA used to carry rebuild kits, but I think they discontinued carrying them a few years ago. I don't know that you'll have much luck, but here's an older thread which may provide some more info for you:

Yeah there are kits out there.
I'm not sure about how simple it'll be, usually takes most people 3-4 hours.

most every shop has stopped even attempting to rebuild the stock twins because the rebuilds simply don't last due to the reasons mentioned in the linked thread. i have heard the same reasons by many shops and seen the condition of the internal housings to tend to agree with the consensus that the twins, after about 45k miles just aren't worth rebuilding.

Cool

send them to Bryan @ BNR, the stage 3's are great! I have 15k on mine @ 10psi... I want to see how long they last at stock boost levels! I'm gunning for 80k-100k mileage...
