And, giving you the benefit of the doubt, being a professional auto tech doesn't automatically qualify you to rebuild a turbo. That's like assuming that, because you're a professional auto tech, you can rebuild an engine or transmission... some things are a little more complicated and meticulous than replacing broken parts on a car.
Sorry to doubt your abilities, but a turbo spins at over 200,000rpm... you mess something up, it can be catastrophic.

btw, look at the responses to this thread...

Notice how not a single person recommended rebuilding the stock turbos.

My points is that there's a reason no one recommends rebuilding them, rebuilds are rarely as reliable as they should be. The people who recommended stock-level replacement recommended getting stock turbos with new CHRAs from Z1.

To Zlover4life just a question what do you do for a living. As for me I graduated top in my class from Wyotech I majored in chassis fab and high performance engines and currently work as a BMW tech so if I wanted your two cents on what I should do I would have asked for it I simply asked where was a good place to get the kit.

chassis, and high performance engines... RIGHT!!!! what could you do at BMW for that and first off... you dont MAJOR in studies for trade schools you get certified, and before any company will accept you you have to usually be certified in ALL basics of cars (electronics, airconditioong, drivetrain, etc.) before they will give any one a job any where...
