damage could have been initiated well before you had it, only needs to be bumped during assembly of the exhaust housing and its a timebomb
look for a gt2554 or a t25g, usually ~$150 on ebay, just avoid anything that the nut on the exhaust wheel looks like yours
How many RPM do they run at ? 20,000 + is it ?Not surprised they blow to bit's if out of balance .
Try up to 120,000 on a little ceramic wheel turbo like that .
Paul its unlikely you would get a turbo that would allow you to use the current housings, but the gt25/t25/t28 range fitment will be very close .
