I stripped down the turbo that came with my engine the other day, the bearings were shot but i also found a bit of damage on the compressor wheel.

In your oppinon could i get another one and rebuild it or shall i just ditch it and buy another whole unit?

I know balancing would be a issue and also there were differant wheels and housings used in T3s so it might be hard to find one thats matched

this one'definitely dead,
I have some spares ones if needed, mesure tip heighn exducer and inducer, I'll look for, also is it std mety turbo or bigger, if you are using big boost (> 15/18 psi)why not making an upgrade at this time (360's 0.36 hsg)
then if your not a big booster (12/15 psi), perhaps it's a good opportunity to switch for a t2 /t25 (Jim had some conv plate ) ! You'll not recognise your mini.
