Dealer wanted 230$ for just the bearings and seals. I can buy a whole rebuild kit with bearings, clips, seals, oil rings, clamp plates and bolts for about 100$ if I know which turbo.

One tech. didn't know and said that he's never even seen a Regal T Type, and the other said that it probably comes with the same turbo as a Grand National and said he doesn't know what hybrid turbo is.

EDIT~ This didn't happen to me personally. The person I'm rebuilding it for works for a Toyota dealership and I guess all the dealerships intermingle with eachother.
