Default turbo overhaul

is it possible for me to overhaul my turbo myself cos there is play in the shaft and i think seals are leaking as it starts to smoke after a drive fast or slow??? thanks

get a turbo repair kit from Stu @ msd or Danny in traders sections, as long as you make sure you take it apart and remember what order the parts come off you shouldn't have a problem on a stanard turbo repair!

ps check the shaft aint scored also
