I picked up a what i think is a factory turbo from a 94 IDI. it is a Garret wast gated unit and feels solid as far as shaft play. trouble i see is it has some nicks in the compressor wheel. i haven't got the other side off to see how the exhaust side looks. three of the bolts broke loose one skipped when i put a wrench on it and i am afraid to push the other two much more until i can get some heat or something to it. don't know how many miles are one the thing either.
so i guess how hard is it to go through one of these guys right? i have successfully rebuilt several engines before so it cant be more complex than that. i saw one taken apart at the rally and know basically how they work but have never tinkered with one before. i really hate to put money into it and have it spin apart but i am not afraid to try it.
anyone know any good manuals that can give me breakdowns and measurements of all the stuff? i have access to micrometers, bore gages, dial indicators and good stuff like that.
thanks
