I think I paid around £600 + , there are kits avaliable but it's balancing the turbo which is the hard bit, it's not something I would do myself.

Look at what you getting though, with mine that for for a 360 degree bearing as well etc, it is probably cheaper dependant on the turbo you are getting rebuilt.
