my friend has a s13 sr20 and the turbo is going bad and he's upgrading to a t28 and is gonna just give me his t25... things wrong with the the turbo now is he says it burns oil like crazy, spools up even louder, and has shaft-play... so if i get it off from him... how would I go about rebuilding it? I would like to use it to turbo my KA?

rebuild the turbo , with new seals and a new wheel. Or you can buy my stock t25 which is in excellent condition. No oil burnage , spools normally , and the seals are good.

a diesol shop might be able to rebuild it for you. I know a guy that goes to York each weekend that has a T25 thats going bad and leaks oil. By any chance does he have a grey hatchback with MA-Motorsports on his windshield? I cant remember his name right now.

rebuilds cost aobut 250$ maybe a little more depending on the damage..


or if oyu feel brave you can rebuild it yourself with one of the rebuild kits off ebay and find a site to giude you through the rebuild.


a t25 on a ka will spool fast as fuck/

lol all these ppl finally realizing the awesomeness of the ca, lol, i think ima buy like 5 er 6 of um so i have a good supply when every1 has bought one and the price is wayyy up

but rebuilding ur turbo urself is a bad idea, that thing spins at like 100,000rpms, theres no possible way you could balance it right

We are a Garrett dealer. We can rebuild your turbo if you need. If the wheels are damaged, it will get really expensive. If you just need bearings and seals, you are good to go.

Shoot me an email to sales@bnecutoms.com and we will get it rebuilt for you.

Thanks!
