Um, ball bearings can not be rebuilt unless they purchased a new center housing with the ball bearing assembly which usually cost just as much as purchasing new.

What exactly did they do to rebuild it? Was it a center section swap or did they tear the center section apart and put all new guts in? Can you please post a good pic of the reciept? Because it may clear some things up... Thanks

I'm sure they just replaced the center housing. Good price.

That not a T-28, that's a T-25 (which is Journal Bearing)

T28's dont use snap rings to hold on the compressor housings,
That's also a T25 oil return

Its also not a GTIR T-28 either, GTIR is constructed the same way and is a Journal Bearing Turbo as well

T28 vs T25

Not trying to be mean just correcting some misinformation before some kid pays 5X the price for a crappy stock turbo.

Damn, well fuck me then. Thanks for clearing it up, appreciate it. I almost had the feeling it wasn't cause the guy I bought the car from was a dick and lied about shit. I tried to figure it out but couldn't, not trying to do anything wrong here. Sooo who wants to buy a t25 haha

I figured that was the case, and that does suck when ppl screw you over like that.

There really shouldn't be any reason to do so simply because the t25 is small enough to have optimal spooling capabilities. Sorry for your misfortune

Sorry, i know you wanna close this thread, but Garret does make bb t25's, but i'm guessing they wouldn't fit onto s13s or something.
