Message	AFAIK, Ash and others said the 2530 could be rebuilt, but I don't believe anyone attempted it yet? Well, I just got my turbo back from the shop and and gt28rs cartridge works like a charm. They swapped my t63 compressor wheel and put on the gt28rs cartridge, balanced the turbo, and all went great. Total cost was around $675.00 for the cartridge and $150.00 for labor. Since new 2530s sell for approx $2200.00 new, this is a great alternative when one of these turbos goes south. James
