Best place to get turbo rebuild kit?

I am going to be pulling my turbo in order to fix an oil leak from the pedestal. I figured while it is out i will rebuild it for peice of mind. Where is the best place to order one? I've heard ebay for 100 bucks? Do any of our sponsors carry them? Thanks

They don't list the prices for the rebuild kits online because they want to talk to you about what your doing and what your plans are but there great to work with. Complete Turbo Service - Rebuilds and Parts
and they're a sponsor.

Here is the eBay rebuild kit. I recommend it 100%. Bought a rebuild turbo from Ron after I destroyed mine. Spoke to him on the phone 3 times and was very helpful!

Hopefully he doesn't need the help anymore. Besides, Clay wasn't a sponsor yet back in 2008.

Sorry guys I bumped the old thread accidentally. I am looking for a rebuild kit for a '96 and I didn't realize I was in the 99-03 forum here.

Bump to an old thread on rebuilds but I need to rebuild mine.
I have run across numerous kits out there and if I am pulling it I want to up grade the wheel. I found a fit from Performance Turbo Parts ? SP Turboost Company and the directions look good, but they do not say any thing about rebalancing the parts.
Suggestions?

After looking at their website, I'm impressed by kits and wheels they offer. I'd give them a try. Looks to be some quality stuff. I really like the 360* thrust washer and stepped overlapping oil seal rings.
