    My TD04 needs a rebuild. a seal blew and it now pisses oil into my intake mani. no good. so i need a TD04 or TD05 or even a aftermarket turbo that would fit on a stock subaru mani that the TD04 is on. or a rebuild kit for a TD04. eaither way i would be happy to have a second turbo anyways. if you have a turbo or rebuild sitting around LMK ASAP! 952-412-4844 my name is paul. thanks.

    I have a turbo that is supposed to be low milage off of a 04 rex, i'd probably take 130 plus your old turbo if the wheel hasn't touched the housing.

    from what i heard used turbos go for about $100-$150 straight up. $130 plus my perfect turbo - the seals is WAY TO STEEP. plus i want 2 turbos so if this happens again i can just swap. thanks though. but i think i am getting one tonight for $125 wich sounds about right.

    this is useless now but ohwell, selling my stock TD04 next spring. LMK around that time if you havn't find a 2nd Turbo.

    Currently has 66k miles, maybe 70k next spring. Not boosting more than Stage 1 ECU Reflash.

    dont worry about it
    how positive are you that its your seal on your turbo? im guessing you dont have a catch can on your car seems how you still have that tinny stock turbo. you dident pull the intercooler off and see oil and say" **** balls ass face cock whore my turbo seals are gone" did you? its normal to see oil there.

    i dont have a WRX....I HAVE A 05 VW JETTA.....so this isnt a stock turbo. and yes i do have a catch can. and yes its MOST DEFINATELY the seal. we took the turbo out and the hot side fell right off the cold side. and you can move the seal on the main shaft of the turbo. but i dont exactlyy pull my intercooler every day. and it wasnt smoking when i left duluth so i drove home and when i got home it was smoking. so i pulled the intake mani and it was dripping oil.
