Rebuild a 2003 6.0 turbo. Good idea or bad?

Hey guys I recently had a problem with my inter cooler blowing out on me. But I'll get a new one ordered. But my turbo should probably be rebuilt or replaced. I'd like to have some of your opinions if I should rebuild this turbo myself and save money. Or spend god knows what and get a new one or buy a rebuilt one. Thanks guys

If all the internals are good I'd get a kit and rebuild it. Much cheaper in the long run and the rebuild instructions are in the 6.0 forum tech folder.

Rebuild it is pretty cheap with the number of good companies out there. Otherwise do it on your bench.
