I have a T3/T4E-60 water cooled with a 5 bolt .63AR. Got it on ebay for a really reasonable price. He stated it had no shaft play, but this things got more shaft play than a gay porn shoot. On the turbine side it appears that the impellers have slightly made contact with the housing, but the fins don't look bent or anything, Just light grooves that are very shallow. Not sure if there is damage to the turbine wheel, so I may re-use it. I can't find any Turbonetics specific rebuild kits, they are all for Garrett turbos. Do you know if rebuild kits are pretty much the same between Garrett and Turbonetics?

Also I don't know if I have a Dynamic Seal or Carbon Seal? Its asked when purchasing a rebuild kit.

Think If I brought it to the next Monthly G2G someone could check it out for me, see what it needs. I know they should have a little play when not filled with oil, but this has quite a bit.

Thanks!
