Bad turbo 18 wrx
I have a 2018 wrx. Only mods are Cobb AP on MAP 93 ots and GS hoses from stock air box to turbo inlet.
This past weekend I noticed a strange noise I initially thought was a boost leak but also thought it had a metallic sound in nature. I had a couple other parts I was waiting to install so I thought I’d investigate and throw those on to eliminate boost leaks while I was in there. Once I got the turbo inlet off I noticed some damage on the compressor wheel. There is also evidence of it contacting the housing in the form of powder or dust. I was able to move the wheel side to side and in and out. In short I want to replace or have the turbo overhauled. Any advice for a company that overhauls or best place to buy new or even a comparable alternative turbo would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time.
