not sure what your trying to ask, but putting new oil seals in a journal bearing turbo costs about $5 (or less) and takes about an hour and a half.

you would have to replace the seal with the same one obviously.

its a compression ring.

you cannot rebuild ball bearing turbos.

Im talking about having motor oil in the hot pipe and the BOV squirting motor oil when revving the motor.
Oil pressure plate or oil restrict plate isn't gonna fix it. Its the compressor seal.

if you need it rebuilt, i could probably help you out.

keep in mind it might not be just the compressor seal. i've seen back plates get screwed up too.
