Turbo problems

Well, I finally know what the oil leak on my car is. I couldn't find it myself, but according to the dealership (I know, I know) it's the impeller sp? seal and the turbos will need to be replaced/rebuilt. Now, I don't know what I should do. I don't really want to go to a single, as that would require some other mods right away, and I'd like ported motor with it (my motor is fine). I'm thinking of having Pettit rebuild/port the turbos, anyone have any experience with that service? Any other suggestions would be welcome

My turbos were doing the same thing except from the compressor side. I reccomend looking on thepartstrader.com and this site for a set of low miles turbos or a rebuilt set. I got mine rebuilt with 1,000 miles on them for $600. I didn't have the dough to get any special work done, or to pay someone else to do the job(I'm a mechanic). Just my $.02
