Well the 14B looks to have puked it's seals. I haven't started disassembling the center section yet but the exhaust side is coated in oil, along with filling the o2 housing and downpipe.
So I plan on using the info :Turbo Rebuild What I'm looking for is recommendation on rebuild kits. There some on EBAY Anybody have personal experience with any available kits? Or any tips I should know before rebuilding? -------------------- 92 Eagle Talon TSI AWD "The Black Golfball" How fast can a 14B go???

Yeah I here that, but I hate to buy a questionable high mile 14B and have it blow again. It cost me $150 to flatbed tow the thing home from Peoria, I can't afford to keep doing that!
 I'll probably buy the whole rebuild kit and do it right. My research of new and used 16G's put's that out of reach right now money wise. Plus it would be too easy to get into the 11's...that wouldn't be fun!
