T04 Rebuild

I have a few turbos laying around and thought i might play around and try and rebuild one. I am looking at rebuilding a t04e but cant seem to find anything to read to get me started. I would greatly appreciate it if you guys could point me in the right direction or just give me some tips.


Thanks
David

There are kits available. I had a question posted in the second gen section on whether or not a particular kit would work with the stock TII turbo. On top of that, I asked where in the hell is the best place to buy them. Check Ebay, I've seen a few for sale there, but I never buy from ebay

As far as tips. Once you get the impeller nut off. It just takes a light tap to get the turbine wheel out. I put a small block of wood( pecice of 2x4) on the end and tap that. A mallet would work to. Same thing to get it in, a light tap, there's no threads to damage putting it in though. When putting it back in be sure you have the piston ring seated as far down as it will go in the bevel before you tap it in. You don't want to mangle it. Also turn it so the gap is pointing straight up, same on the compressor seal. There's really nothing else to it.
