The SPOOLOGIC Turbo Rebuild Kit SL-210-001 is a complete internal-parts service kit for rebuilding a genuine OEM TP38 turbocharger on 1994-1997 7.3L Powerstroke applications. Built to OE specifications and sized to drop directly into the factory CHRA — the same internal wear parts SPOOLOGIC uses when building a new turbo on our SL-100 line. Every wear item that spins, seals, or supports the rotating assembly is included as a new part — extreme duty journal bearings and bearing spacer, 360° thrust bearing and thrust collars, step gap seal rings, snap rings, and O-rings. Ships as an internal-parts kit intended for professional rebuilders and experienced DIY builders who will disassemble the CHRA, replace all wear parts, and dynamically balance the rotating assembly on a VSR balancer before returning the turbo to service.

Skip the Bench Rebuild — Consider the SPOOLOGIC SL-200 CHRA Cartridge

This kit is for professional turbo rebuilders and experienced DIY builders who have the tools and know-how to strip a CHRA, press bearings, install seals, and dynamically balance the rotating assembly on a VSR balancer. If you'd rather skip the disassembly, cleaning, bearing press, and balancing steps — SL-200-001, or SL-200-002 are pre-assembled, VSR-balanced CHRA cartridges for this same turbo family. Drop it into your existing compressor and turbine housings and you're done. No bench rebuild required, no shop time, no balancing equipment needed.

Common TP38 Failure Symptoms This Kit Addresses

• Blue smoke on startup or under boost — worn compressor-side and turbine-side oil seals
• Excessive shaft play — failed or worn journal bearings and thrust bearing
• Oil in the intake tract or exhaust housing — seal ring wear or bearing housing scoring
• Slow spool or loss of boost — degraded rotating assembly clearances
• Whistling or grinding noise — bearing wear, contact between rotating and stationary parts
• High crankcase pressure or elevated oil consumption traced back to the turbo

Built to OE Spec — Same Premium Internals Used in SPOOLOGIC Turbos

This kit is designed to rebuild your genuine OEM TP38 turbocharger. Every wear part is built to OE specifications and sized to drop directly into the factory CHRA — while using the same premium components SPOOLOGIC installs when building a new turbo on our SL-100 line. Extreme duty journal bearings are upgraded from standard OEM bearing material for better thermal tolerance and longer service life. The 360-degree thrust bearing replaces the OEM half-thrust design for improved axial load capacity under sustained boost. Step gap seal rings are precision-ground and sized for the TP38 CHRA. Rebuild your OEM turbo to SPOOLOGIC internal spec — not OE-service-replacement spec.

What's Inside the Kit

• Extreme duty journal bearings & bearing spacer — upgraded bearing material for improved thermal tolerance and longer service life
• 360° thrust bearing & thrust collars — upgraded from OEM half-thrust design for better axial load capacity
• Step gap seal rings — compressor and turbine side, replacing worn OE seals for tight oil control
• Snap rings, retaining rings, and O-rings — all consumables required to reassemble the CHRA
