T3 rebuild
#7
I don't know how those god damn speed shops get $250 for a $75 kit (that they probably get cheaper) and 1/2 hour worth of labor... unless that includes them taking it out of your car and reinstalling it plus a test and tune or something. If that $250 doesn't include pulling it and reinstalling it in your car ask for an itemized invoice... it really shouldn't take any more than about 1/2 hour for a trained guy with the right tools.
DUDE, do it yourself. Buy one of the GpopShop's $78 kits http://www.gpopshop.com/garrettt3kits.html and give it a whirl... Or if you're really scared, buy a kit from your local place, try it yourself, and if you just can't manage, take it to them to finish and you're better off for the attempt at least.
Check out Brains Rebuild Thread, and read through my T25 Rebuild thread... IT'S EASY!!!!
1. Remove the housings
2. Remove the compressor wheel.
3. Pull turbine wheel and shaft out.
4. Remove guts of turbo (bearings, clips, little space-ship thing, etc...) noting the order you took them out it.
5. Replace in same order new parts.
6. Stick shaft in place and attach compressor wheel.
7. Re-attach housings.
Hints:
1. Lube everything with oil as you install it.
2. Don't force anything... it all fits really easy.
Special tools:
1. A good sized vice is a big help.
2. Snap ring pliers (a big pair for the compressor housing, and a small pair for the c-clips under the housings.)
3. Set of dental pics.

I'm not sure if the seals are identical. Take a look at the gpopshop website at rebuild kits...they spell it out pretty clearly as to which kit works with which turbo.
I just looked for you:
http://www.gpopshop.com/mitsubishikits.html
and it looks like the same kit works.
