im pretty sure you can send your turbo to arron at driftmotion. i think they still do ct26 upgrades.

as far as I know, the internals are still the same. Just the compressor wheel and housing have been altered.

The center is the same and the housing has to be modified to accept the bigger wheel. Ft413 is correct, you need to send it to someone that knows what they are doing. The wheels/shaft will have to be re-balanced or the turbo will have a very short life...this is not something your average Joe can do at home.

how about just changing the oil seal?

If it's a 60-1 mike turbo off ebay it uses a different cartridge..

In addition to that, the wheel which probably is a garrett series (or similar) brand and they also need machining in order to fit the already modified ct26.

I had a brandnew ct26 and something got stuck in the intake wheel and damaged it. I wanted to replace just the intake wheel and nothing else but there was much more to it than just ordering a stock garrett (or the like) wheel and put it in.
