Title: Blown turbo
Post by: SR71blackbird on November 19, 2011, 05:01:16 PM
I have a Garrett Airesearch T3 turbo with .63 exhaust. It doesnt have shaft play at all but it is leaking oil out of the exhaust side. What rebuild kit should i buy for the turbo?

you will have to locate your model number and probably contact garrett or search ebay.

There should be a tag on the compressor backing plate. Use the numbers off that to order a kit from a reliable vendor, such as g-pop shop, or turbocity.
